Easy: dump the kdb to text file, remove the principal with a text editor, load
it back, hoping no one tried to change their password while you did so.
Now here's a more difficult one. How do I correct or delete a bad srvtab entry
without rebuilding it with ext_srvtab (which gets only those principals with
single instance, and needs the master password)? ksrvutil add appends a correct
record, but this is never read if there's a bad one already in there.
