Yes, I actually tried setting the state (IOSET) before setting the 
direction to output with no effect.  And the 22xx user's manual does 
state that performing an IOSET on any bit which is an input will have 
no effect.  I also spoke with a Philips FAE after I sent this first 
message and he confirmed that output will definitely be born low and 
there's no workaround.

Thanks
