The bushings in the brake arms may be too loose on the pivot studs. Tightening the bolt won't affect this. I had to replace the brake arms to eliminate the squeal. On my bike, if the front wheel is turned too far, the top of the brake arm hits the downtube; I suspect that this is how the bushings got loosened up over the years.
