That's if you only use their sysadmsh to manage accounts.  All you
have to do is basically

find /tcb /etc/auth -type f -print | xargs grep -l USERNAME

then hand-edit the files that it lists as appropriate.  I changed my
username this way (without changing my UID), and I think I've
undeleted a user or two as well.
