Sometimes a larger handle, long screwdriver with the same small tip will do the job. They can be bought at Ferree's or can be made from a big screwdriver using a motorized grinder. When removing screws, one doesn't want to ruin the screw head, however. Success can result by patiently alternating heating with oiling with penetrating oil for a couple of days, waiting in between tries.
The repair people sometimes have to resort to drilling the screw out or sawing the screw off at the joint with a very thin jeweler's saw, making or buying a new screw. These are desperate measures for those skilled in their use, but, if carefully done, may not be visible later.
Gordon in NZ probably has good advice on this.
