@Betacommand said something about the bot still working if you just delete the lines which deal with the prefix. Which seems plausible as it uses a cookie jar anyway. I'm not sure how to test that now though, there does not seem to be a wiki family for labs.
In any case, getting users to update should take a few days at least and it's not nice to break all bots for the weekend. (Well, the 16% of bots which are unlucky enough that their session would expire this week, but still.)
I'll make a step-by--step tutorial about using OAuth and we can send that and/or a call to update out with Tech News. (I suppose compat users will be screwed, or maybe that already happened in January?)
