But do these PSUs require any minimum load on any/all of the outputs to maintain regulation?

Yes, they do. In fact, some of them can get damaged by trying to turn them on without a load.

As far as I know, the minimum load is rather low. Something like a hard drive (or a similar load) might do, about 5 Watts or so.
