I believe you can't do that. Well at least for protocols in gaim wherein
the storage of the buddy list in the server is supported. For those
protocols, blist.xml just acts like a cache, just in case you may want
to view your buddy list when you're offline on a certain protocol. I
believe AIM, ICQ (using Oscar), MSN, Yahoo, and Jabber on gaim stores
the buddy list on the server. To remove a buddy on the list, you must be
online on that protocol and remove the buddies you want to remove from
the gui.

For protocols that don't support buddy list storage on the server (I
think IRC is an example), removing the buddy in blist.xml might work.
Anyway, this was the behavior on older versions of gaim for all
protocols.
