Often a Dremel tool with a thin grinding wheel will allow you to make
a slot and then use a regular screwdriver to remove it.

Yes, sometimes, or even a fine toothed blade in a hacksaw, but not
when you are standing on top of a ladder and struggling to reach the
crappy hardware. The moron who built my four car garage used 4" or
longer Robertson screws everywhere, and most of the heads were puled
below the surface before the #2 bit slipped and chewed up the head. I
broke two crowbars removing a dangerous hanging rack he's built to hold
plywood above one of the bays. Both were flimsy, and they hung low
enough that you could bump your head on exposed screw points sticking an
inch though the bottom 2*4 beams. I had to remove and replace a lot of
lumber that split because of the way he screwed things up.
