Feel free to try it…look at BDSKBibTeXParser and the group code.  You'll be 
splitting an XML property list up somehow, and stuffing it into multiple 
fields, either as multiple plists or by segmenting the XML.  You'd also have to 
consider backwards compatibility with existing formats, and that's where it 
gets ugly.

I'm guessing that your problem is with the length of the lines (number of pubs 
in the group) instead of the actual number of groups, but I can't reproduce the 
error here (TeX Live 2010) using pdflatex and bibtex.  Here's my attempt at the 
minimal .tex file I asked for:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}


\begin{document}
    Some text.
    % will this make it read the full db?
    A citation: \citet{nonexistentkey}.
    Another citation: \citet{BarwiseBenthem:PebbleGames}.
    
    \bibliography{/Volumes/Local/Users/amaxwell/Desktop/megacz.bib}
\end{document}
