I went to the hardware store and got a handy little tool called the GraBit.Its the greatest thing since sliced bread for removing old,damaged,stripped screws or the like,especially for bows that you definately dont want to drill into.
It will work on any type of screw immaginable.

Can you pull back on your saver while you try to unscrew it. Is it a molly like insert that is spinning, if so, you might see if you can get some fletch tight in on the back side to hold it long enought to remove the screw. I really dont know, just a thought. No experience with what you are explaining, just a thought.
