I did several successful repairs in the past using this method:

rip off the insulation of an appropriate wire. Appropriate means its diameter is far less than the hole you like to fill. Cut the insulation to size (a little longer than the depth of the hole). Stick it into the hole, cut off the excess part. Turn the screw into the now tighter hole. If the screw still has no grip, use two or more pieces of insulation or a thicker version.

The advantage of this method: it is reversible.
