In every single case, it wasn't the pivot "pin" itself that was broken. Rather, the whole pin and a millimeter or so of the surrounding area that the pin is attached to is what breaks off. Basically, the tip of the lobe that has the pin on it. Vince - what I have had good success with is releasing one side (pin out of the head), and while holding it very slightly angled using an electronics pick (very much like a dental pick, but it doesn't get wide just past the tip) and with that I can easily reach in-between the switches to release the other side.
