If you are using penetrating fluid, and Kroil is very good, try applying it not only to the head of the screw but to the threads as well. If I recall correctly, that threaded hole is a through hole and you should be able to apply the Kroil to the threads by dripping it into the through hole. Apply it under the screw head too. Let it sit at least 24 hours. If you cannot get it loose like that just about your only other option is to drill out the screw, without damaging the threads in the hole, and pick out the pieces.
Stupid question: Why were you trying to remove the screw? Generally speaking, the only reason to remove that screw is if the spring breaks and you need to replace it.
If you get the screw out call the good folks at VTI Gunparts and order a new one.

Next on your shopping list, order some decent hollow ground screw drivers so you don't bugger up any more screw slots.
