It's a custom syntax ... Jim Henderson has a copy of them so he can comment
if he has had time to look into it. I'm optimistic that an import can be
done, however less optimistic that the full metadata (e.g. index entries,
special cross-references and so forth) can be preserved sufficiently to
allow re-export.

If you want to have a go at it please co-ordinate with myself or Jim to
avoid duplication of effort;]
