onchip memory granularity

Is there something in Quartus/SOPC/NIOSII that forces M4K allocation for on-chip memory to be a power of 2? If so is there a workaround or is this something basic like the hardware always allocates ...

Very useful replies, I will try again. I wonder if another workaround is to allocate multiple on-chip ROM segments in SOPC, so for example to get 25k, install 16k, 8k and 1k, all powers of 2. Anyway sounds like an undocumented 'feature' or a bug for Altera to look at.
