If it's the _names_ of the bookmarks that change, you
could use find-and-replace to update the names in the
links (if you aren't already).
(When you insert your own bookmarks, I'm guessing you
_need_ to select all of the heading. But if not, just
clicking in the heading and inserting a bookmark gets
around the problem of Word using your bookmark instead
of its own when people insert cross-references.)

Granted.

Apart from not selecting the whole heading before
inserting each bookmark, I don't know of a fix. Maybe
you could alter your workflow so that the bookmarks
get inserted after all the cross-references?
Hope that helps,
Craig
