I just checked the Banana Pi, which exposes ports from bank E on its
CON1. Admittedly,
that's the "Camera Serial Interface", but that connector is explicitly
also labelled
as supporting various GPIO pins: http://www.bananapi.org/p/product.html

On the Cubietruck, there's also CN9, exposing some GPIO ports from bank G:

Given that there tend to be crashes on re-enabling LDO3+LDO4 and many
boards expose affected pins (not only for CSI!): wouldn't be it be the
best to
keep them enabled?

FWIW, Olimex did reply to my inquiry regarding misleading pin names:
