I too hate fudges, but I hate even more spending money when theres a good alternative ;-)
I dunno about the Phil because I've never used one, but a quick google tells me that "Judicious setup allows you to move the 'line 2mm either way" so I guess it would help - but not quite 3mm that you need. Don't forget that different brands of sprocket have different shoulder to tooth dimensions which can be very usefull when your a mm or so out. Looks like a phil BB, cups and install tool is coming in at £120 from HubJub (good people, Will is helpful you might wanna call him).
A re-dish if you don't have a truing stand should be a tenner, a score max at a decent LBS. Thus with the axle spacers option you'd get working, butter and perhaps a hundred quid in your back pocket to buy some rad threads, pink deep Vs, campag giant corkscrew or some other essential goodies.
