I would think it should be something like this:

[1] Remove all code that uses the syspref.
[2] Remove all references to the syspref from preferences/*.pref.
[3] Remove all references to the syspref from the installer SQL for all 
localizations.
[4] Add an update to updatedatabase.pl deleting the preference from the 
systempreferences table.

Regards,

Galen
