A possible starting point might be xbib.tex by cfw2@po.CWRU.Edu 
(Charles F. Wells). Get DM Jones' tex-index from niord.shsu.edu. 

There are two problems:
1. xbib needs a small modification for the newer latex.tex due to a change
in the counter used in thebibliography:
    {\string\bibcite{#1}{\the\value{\@listctr}}}\fi\ignorespaces%

2. theapa probably re-defines the cite stuff, breaking xbib (?).
