Theoretically you can use ColorVision's Doctor Pro to accomplish this...

You'd apply the the curve to the correct profile and generate a new 
profile..

The caveat is that your images will look strange in softproof mode..  

However, the new profile, should, in theory, properly convert images for 
the printer..

The only real advantage in thisapproach would be that you could do all 
your adjustments in the plain ol generic Pshop working profile and  then 
outpput to the new profile..

Hmmm.. I'll try and find time to try this out over the weekend with a 
small print and my existing VM-S curves...
