You shouldn't remove the uucp user, something in the future might depend on it being there. You can safely (and should) set the shell to /sbin/nologin however. As for the binaries, feel free to delete them. If you do a source upgrade, use the NOUUCP option from /etc/defaults/make.conf, that'll make sure that they are not rebuilt.
