You could rough the screw up a bit and grind a small flat on it to get a better hold.

Or - flatten the end a bit with a hammer so that it is a tight fit on the hole.3

I know how hard the screws are to work with - I used a socket on one screw, a socket and extension on another, and a small box wrench on the third when I worked on our 740s.
