This was an (unfortunately) intentional omission. The only way to remove
a principal from a V4 database is to dump the database, edit the dumped
file with a text editor to remove the (un)desired records, then reload
the database.
The folk who did V5 fixed this little problem.

I don't believe so. I haven't seen any code to do so.
