Yep, it seems that there are only a couple of solutions:
Don't take all the crap that you think you need when touring and stay within the GVM (often pretty difficult from my experience having done a 2 week Simpson/Hay river trip with two kids).
Buy a Defender 130, unfortunately there's not much else out there that suits although the 70 series Toyotas aren't too bad, and not very much in the modern wagon market, the new Defender is better than most at around 800KG and the Patrol is about 750.
It is obviously a problem though as Toyota have a web page dedicated to knowing your GVM two clicks away from their front page. Toyota Genuine Accessories Payload | Toyota Australia
