Graeme, how difficult would it be to make fakeread use the Perceptual table for special cases such as this? I notice from its code that it falls back to "IcmDefaultIntent" if "IcAbsoluteColorimetric" isn't available. Supposing one patched fakeread to use Perceptual here (or added a run-time switch) - would the readings then enable the creation of a substitute ISOCoated profile that could be passed to profile -S, or would there be some other nasty side-effect I'm missing?

Not too hard, but your profile won't be quite right, because profile
expects instrument readings, which are equivalent to ICC-absolute.
Fake test points from the other intent tables will have had their
white points normalised to PCS white.
