That's one option but I would like to be able to reuse it if possible 😀
It looks like some sort of security bolt, I'd get out the needle nose molgrips...unlikely to be that tight bearing in mind it's tightening onto glass.
Drill/Dremel the sucker out then put a normal fixing back in.
dremel a flat on it.
use screw driver.

I'd imagine some kind of [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/PIECES-SECURITY-TORX-SCREWDRIVERS-BITS/dp/B002QPHK3C ]security torx tool[/url] (not sure exactly what kind though, those in the bottom left look likely-ish)
You can do it with patience and a flat head screw driver as long as it's not too tight, failing that, pliers, molgrips or similar.
I would also use myself or pliers. And replace with a normal bolt.
