Using some aluminum-grade anti-seize on those caliper mounting screw threads prevents this thread galling problem from happening. I've had really good luck with the aluminum paste formulation anti-seize for bolts like these - Permatex #81343 works great, and comes in an easy to use small tube which doesn't seem to evaporate, or allow the oil to separate from the solids.

Going for a light, even coating on the threads (so it looks like in the photo below) keeps things neat and tidy:
