I propose that you ask the GDC if the following setup is legal:

Remove the jumper from the port you are going to use.
Jump power from one of the DSC's many 5V pins to the jumper pin closer to the PWM port.



It is kinda ugly, but it does the trick, doesn't really pose any safety concerns, and might be legal (if unintended) under the current wording.
