The glass is cracked in one of the headlights. My dealer claims that the whole assembly must be replaced (at a ridiculous price, of course). Is that true? are replacement lenses available?

Yes they are. I've replaced two on our previous 93 850. You'll need an extra pair of hands to hold the unit whilst you ping the clips back on- mine were incredibly tight in a "I know the glass is going to break" kinda way!
Go to EuroCarParts or German and Swedish.

Thanks. Were they the single or dual bulb variety of headlight?
Neil
Single.
We now have a 98 S70 and although its the dual bulb h/l, the clips which hold the glass on are still present, and i would assume I can get replacement glass just the same.
