You could drill it with a small hole and then use what's known as an "EASY OUT" to possibly remove it. Go to a hardware store and they should be able to help/show you what to do

Yea, your going to have to use the stripped screw kit to get that out, the one you have to drill down a little bit, then crank with the special bit like ardvark mentioned. Your other option is to drill it out completly and re-tap the hole, but the bar wouldn't fit in there a unless you used a lot of teflon tape.
