Laurie Anderson's O Superman springs to mind (the looped 'O, O, O, O' which forms the rhythm section). I'm entirely certain she borrowed the idea from the number bits in Philip Glass' Einstein...
Stockhausen did a peice of vocalese... was it Stimmung? My memory fails me.
Alvin Lucier's 'I am sitting in room' is another obvious choice.
Meridith Monk and Diamanda Galas all use extended technique to make a more noisy use of the voice, as does Patty Walters. I'm not sure if you could call this 'voice as other instrument' though, otherwise you'd be including yodelling and throat singing and any number of extended techniques.
Sainkho Namchylek does some fucking outstanding things with her voice. Listen to her.
