Take a closer look; the the FAQ also mentions the possibility of
running bibtex8, which Debian ships (right in texlive-binaries).  It
appears to be only optionally encoding-aware, so you may be able to
dodge that issue while still requesting capacity increases with -B,
-H, -W, or individual --m* flags.
