You favour getting the 65816's 6 volts from a resistive divider? This assumes
that the current it draws is the same for all operations, and I don't know if
this is safe to say.  As the current drawn by the '816 changes, so will its
supply voltage, unless the resistive divider is very robust (in terms of
current) indeed.

Since a 13 megahertz 65816 is going to be a pretty penny (does anyone know how
much, in small quantity?), I'd probably spring for the two-buck regulator.
