Try hitting the edge of the bolt head with a hammer and chisel. You might 
also try cleaning out the bolt head so the socket will go in a little deeper, and 
grab the remains of the points in there (using the 12 point CV socket). Or 
you could use the hammer and chisel method combined with heat, since you're 
replacing the boot and repacking the CV's anyway. I hope this helps.
