Oh wow, I guess this is close to what I was looking for:
https://elinux.org/BeagleBone_VGA
I can't tell if it's a dead project ("Discontinued") or a work in progress
("Manufacturer's link available soon")
Also, it sounds like it still uses a lot of pins.. probably because it's
supporting full

Hmm, no, not at all.
With a VGA device in text mode, screen

But

I have a BBB project in mind that would replace an old DOS machine, making
use
of one of the PRUs, and it would need about a dozen or so high speed GPIO
pins.
To do this project, I can see I'd need to disable HDMI to free up the
needed GPIO,
but a text mode console is kinda required; something

Ah, OK -- it's confusing though; searching for "beaglebone technical
reference manual" took me to this beagleboard.org page
