I had a similar problem. After much gnashing of teeth, I decided to
cut my rear fender and splice it using home made brackets:

This photo shows the second set of brackets. The first rear bracket
attempted to run under the brake, but did not provide anymore
clearance than the fender itself. I admit this is an extreme solution,
but it gives a lot of flexibility with getting a good fender line and
good clearance. In fact, I'd like to see fenders come in 4 piece sets
with more attractive brackets.

Like others, I've cut and ground down mounting screws. I mounted the
fenders, removed the wheels, and cut/ground the screws flush with the
bolts (a Dremel works great for these jobs). I'll have a hell of time
reattaching the fenders should I ever need to remove them, but as long
as they stay on, I've got great clearance.
