My knee jerk, based on what I've seen so far, would be to script up
something like:

1) Grab the dblinks from DBA_DB_LINKS
2) For each owner:
2a) Save their password from USER$
2b) Change the password
2c) Login as that user
2d) Drop/recreate the dblink.
2e) Reset the password, based on the saved value.
3) Repeat

Any other way *supported* way of doing this?

How would you delete dblinks that came over when you clone a database
with a new name?  I would be interested to know...

Only a fool would take this advice.  

Updating internal tables directly with the advice of Oracle support is
asking for a complete database restore.

I would strongly suggest you do not do this.
