If you still run the version you installed from the FreeBSD ports system, then
it is indeed easy to fix: just upgrade to the current version (the port has not
been updated unfortunately, but RefDB builds straight out of the tarball on
FreeBSD). RefDB is supposed to handle multi-head bibtex citations correctly
since 0.9.7. If you run a version later than 0.9.6 which can't handle these
citations, then this will qualify as a bug.
