@MironAtHome Good find!
This one is due to the usage of the PG type `Name`, see below. It looks like
we'll either have to limit names to `NAMEDATALEN` or use a different method.
It appears that whomever used `Name` in this case either didn't realize the
drawbacks or didn't expect it to ever be longer than `NAMEDATALEN`.
```
/*
* Maximum length for identifiers (e.g. table names, column names,
* function names). Names actually are limited to one fewer byte than this,
* because the length must include a trailing zero byte.
*
* Changing this requires an initdb.
*/
#define NAMEDATALEN 64
```
```
/*
* Representation of a Name: effectively just a C string, but null-padded to
* exactly NAMEDATALEN bytes. The use of a struct is historical.
*/
typedef struct nameData
{
char data[NAMEDATALEN];
} NameData;
typedef NameData *Name;
```
