pdbshred seems to be the only answer for TEXtREAd
Ah, that's the thread (yes, I'd read the whole of it) where I saw the suggestion regarding amendment of the script's test for BOOKMOBI.

D'oh! I've just had a play with pdbshred and discovered that arguments I'd understood to be show-stoppers are optional arguments for my purposes so I've been able to extract text in html form (from this "PID-encrypted" ebook) and to generate a set of bitmaps which is small enough to work with so as to massage the whole into something to feed to Calibre for conversion. Good game!

Thanks to all for the responses.
