I spoke too soon about continuing to edit as normal: actually, I can paste
text and use backspace after the long line, but attempting to type anything
further on in the file renders DrRacket unresponsive. Sometimes, when I
"Force Quit" DrRacket (Mac OS), a DrRacket error window flickers onto the
screen, but it's gone before I can read it.

file->value for me, for now.
