In Confluence 3.5 and earlier, you could edit any type of page anchor link quite easily...

For example, you could simply edit a page called 'This Page' with a link to an anchor on 'Some other page' by changing:
- [link to anchor on another page|Some Other Page#anchorname]
  to
- [link to anchor on another page|Some Other Page#anewanchorname]

Afaia, Confluence 4.1+ allows you to edit links to anchors on the same page, but so far, this isn't possible with links to anchors on other pages.

Instead, you have to recreate these links 'from scratch' using the Link dialog box.
