Extracting titles from Entries strips latex macro "\"

Description
I'm trying to do some processing on a bibtex file which has the "\ldots" macro in it's title field. I want to remove those macros safely before processing, except that pyblio (or maybe recode) eats the "" when it converts to text. I can't figure out how to get at the root text variable so that the conversion does not occur. The error that is presented is "warning: unable to convert '\ldots'"
And a related code snippet:
if entry.has_key("title"): title = entry.get("title") print "title: %s" % title
