Broken self-extracting bolt retainer

So I was trying to take off the FSA cranks on my brand new Topstone last night to put my power meter crank on and had a bit of an issue. The FSA cranks use the typical self-extracting bolt but the crank arm is so stuck to the spindle that the bolt broke right through threaded retaining piece that it pushes against to remove the crank arm. So basically I'm screwed right now. The only way I can thing of to remove it is to get out the sawzall and hack off the non drive side arm. Has anyone seen a better solution?
