Packrat, I had the same problem with an old M. I tried everything...then an elderly farmer showed me how.
Like you I had two bolts loose. He tightened them up...and then some. He then took a 3/8 piece of flat bar about 3ft long and drilled a hole in near the end. He then proceded to arc weld thru the hole to the bolt. I about had a heart attack. He let the bolt cool, hit the bar with a hammer to loosen the bolt. He then ground out the weld and went on to the next bolt until they were all loose. He claimed the heat from the welder smashed the rust in the threads and they came right out. He had me worried...but it was easy the way he did it.
My 2cents...good luck
