FWIW, when I have documents with many cross references, I follow this
procedure to troubleshoot them:

 1- Tools -> Update -> Update all
 2- Export as PDF
 3- Open the PDF and search for the text of the error message for
 missing links

I cannot tell you the exact text at point 3- because I am normally
using the Italian build of AOO. It should be something like "Error:
link not found" and it should be ``special enough'' to give you few
``false positives'' when you look for it.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
