If you actually had an allen head CV bolt (some are allen and some are what
they call 12 point or star drive) then you can buy a 12 point tool and drive
that into the allen and you should get it out that way.  If this doesn't
work, then get some "vice-grips" TM and try these.  If this doesn't work, a
small amount of plastique explosives will do wonders on a stuck bolt (however
the rest of your van may also come apart at the same time so use this as a
last resort:).

Hope this helps,
