You could postprocess it, as Andreas suggested, and maybe BibTool
would even format it as you want.  However, keep in mind
that both forms are equally valid BibTeX, as is this contrived
example:

@article ( citekey , author = "Ann Author",
title = {Mixing quotes is bad},
year = 2011,
date = "17~" # jun,
keywords = "BibTeX syntax is b{\"a}d"
)

Note the additional whitespace, use of parens instead of curly
braces, and mixed quote styles :).  Writing your own ad-hoc
parser is an exercise in frustrations (BTDTBTT).  If your
script uses Perl, I think you can use Text::BibTeX to get the
same parser that BibDesk uses.
