You are right -- I was hung-up with my issue here, namely that dBp does not log. (EAC will put the flag in a cue sheet, and it is possible to decode-on-the-fly with certain audio players -- hence it is clear afterwards that de-emphasis was detected.)
I use SoX: http://sox.sourceforge.net/ -- a command-line tool with syntax like
sox infile.flac outfile.flac deemph
SoX is GPL, and I've nagged Spoon to support it as a DSP. (Edit: in this thread, even.)
