Just as an FYI for anyone in this predicament, you can request that 
Google remove certain URLs from their search index without having to 
wait for the links to expire in a normal Google index cycle.

I'm not sure of the exact mechanism to do this but I do seem to 
recall that they will process the request within 48 hours.
