What if you try `M-x find-tag'?

If it exhibits the same problem, try splitting the file in half, before 
one of the page break characters (they look like ^L in Emacs) preceding 
a file name. That will make both parts a valid tags file.

Try `M-x visit-tags-table' on each (say no when Emacs suggests to keep 
the old one), and see if both halves have the same problem.
