I just ran into this yesterday with a large MySQL dump. In your case  
you can work around the problem by running XML through "xmllint -- 
format" to add new-lines in a safe manner:

chris at enceladus:~/Desktop $ cat temp.xml
<foo><bar><baaz/></bar></foo>
chris at enceladus:~/Desktop $ xmllint --format temp.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
   <bar>
     <baaz/>
   </bar>
</foo>

In my case, I used Perl to add newlines for parentheses but that  
would be dangerous depending on the input data since it doesn't  
escaped string values at all (this wasn't an issue with my data).

Not handling really long lines is a common problem - vim also hung on  
my file.
