Using a soldering iron to melt the threadlock is the easiest method, but you could stick a Torx bit in the screw and heat that with a blowtorch.
You have a blowtorch in the kitchen for crème brûlée, right?
I'd laugh at most people who claimed they might have to change their pedal bearings "in the field", but I understand that you can be quite hard on your kit...
Scilly.Suffolk-
The only cream in my place is the 20 varieties of chamois cream.
As a reformed (I left the country in question) pyromaniac, it's best I don't have access to anything as exciting as a blowtorch. I've held off buying a soldering iron for 12 or so years here I reckon I can do more. But I'm quite good at hitting things until they do what they're supposed to (no, not the missus, not all aussies are like that)
I know it sounds far fetched but if I've spent £5-10k getting to a race in forrun, then I'll finish the fucker even if I have to wait a day for some bearings and a soldering iron to arrive, so yeah, not exactly field repair but you get the idea.

I just found a box of brand new pedals in a drawer.
This means that the replacement of bearings will almost certainly never happen :)
hippy
I should really do it myself since I might have to do similar in the field but I am running low on time these days. This annoying thing "work" that seems to have slotted into my life again. I'll see how I go. Scherrit reckons I might need a soldering iron which is making me think I should just buy another set of pedals :) Stupid Speedplay.
