I'm not even sure they don't go crazy when given 3.3V :-)

Actually the list of IO_3V3 customers is knowable:

 - CPU IO voltage (separate from core voltage)

 - CPU RTC rail for some reason

 - CPU ADC rail

 - DVCC_CODEC

 - Audio AMP

 - USB Host pwr control

 - LCM

 - Motion sensor IO (not core)

 - Glamo IO (not core)

 - WLAN module power


Plus various static pullups on Open Drain lines not being used at that time.

Its a continuum -- we can pull it to 3.0V okay because that is inside
+/- 10%.  What happens at 2.7, at 1.8... shouldn't we test it? :-)
