Is it possible that the file you want to edit uses LF instead of CR as line
terminators ? I think MicroEmacs demands CR and also has a limited line length,
so a large file with LFs is going to exceed this limit.
Try to replace LFs with CRs. There a several programs (conv, lf2cr) that will
do the job.

Hope that helps.
