I agree with Owen that a fully functioning and relaxed brake should not interfere with normal drum removal.
Regardless of nitwits fiddled with it or not, when they've been sitting for years, the wheel cylinder may or may not be frozen(mine were) in who knows what position and who knows what state the shoes are in, that detensioning the cam might help free things up inside.
