I'd switch to steel chainring bolts. Sugino and Truvativ both sell kits of 5x 8mm long bolts and nuts. I kept cracking the heads off aluminum chainring bolts for a while before I switched back to steel ones -- one at a time. I think the 5th aluminum chainring bolt is still in service with 4 steel ones carrying the load.
