In releases prior to PostgreSQL 7.3, identifier names (e.g. the names of
tables) are limited to 31 characters. You can change this by changing
NAMEDATALEN in src/include/postgres_ext.h and recompiling (rememeber to
do a 'make clean' first -- you'll also have to re-initdb).
In PostgreSQL 7.3, the default NAMEDATALEN setting is 64, which allows
identifier names up to 63 characters.
