Occassionally I have had good luck using a torx socket, especially on larger allens. Try taking a Torx bit that is roughly the same size or slightly larger then the stripped allen opening and hammer it into the bolt. Typically one you have stripped it the head of the bolt will give a bit and allow the torx teeth to dig in.
