Try tightening it again a bit, then loosen it again. Keep working it like that.

I've had trouble before with caliper bolts. I've always had luck with putting th eallen wrench in the bolt, then smacking it with a hammer until it loosens. A safer way to do it would be to put a pipe over the end of the wrench to get more torque. The first method is safer, but takes a while, and doesn't always work. The second method is tricky. It either works, or destroys the bolt.
