I'd use a high speed die grinder with a carbide bit to grind the head off.

Good Morning Ed,

Those screws can be a bugger. Try turning the object the screw is holding up to see if you can unscrew it that way. If that dosen't work, slide a thin prybar in there and strike it a few times with a hammer to break the screw.

Howdy fellow Texan!

Ed, those screws should break fairly easily. As was posted before, either prying or a pair of pliers under the head should do the deed.
