Purge parts of a repository

Hello,
I have converted a CVS Repository to Mercurial. This repository contains
some very large but obsolete trees and I wouldn't like to carry over all
the history to the Mercurial repository. This is simply a waste of space
and bandwith and the old history is still available in the CVS
repository. Is there a way to purge some subdirs without ruining the
repository integrity? I figure that I can rm
-rf .hg/store/data/something but hg verify isn't happy about this
(understandable). Is there a clean (well, let's say 'cleaner') way to
achieve the same?
