 class Thingie(models.Model)
 #fields go here
   class Meta:
     verbose_name = 'A String Greater Than 50 Characters Long, Probably For
 The Admin'

 Running 'python manage.py syncdb' results in MySQLdb trying to run the
 following:

 INSERT INTO `auth_permission` (`name`, `content_type_id`, `codename`)
 VALUES (%s, %s, %s)(u'A String Greater Than 50 Characters Long, Probably
 For The Admin', 11, u'add_thingie')

 The field `name` has a length restriction of 50 characters.  This results
 in a warning 'error' being generated (_mysql_exceptions.Warning: Data
 truncated for column 'name' at row 1) but no further useful information.
 This also halts syncdb, which is also called during the test suite.

 Suggestions (since I'm nowhere near qualified to contribute, yet):
 - Maybe just catch the warning and ignore it?  This seems to be a display-
 only field, so it probably won't hurt.
 - Or maybe catch the warning and explain the cause?
 - Model validator could complain about verbose_name being too long?
 - Increase the size of the field?
 - Maybe just let google index this ticket so that the next person to
 google the error sees why it happened?
