I experienced this same problem using the latest GWT (1.5.3) for windows and Eclipse Ganymede. I also followed the GWT instructions for creating a brand new GWT project using Eclipse. The project name used in both the projectCreator and applicationCreator scripts was the same. After attempting the import of the new project into Eclipse, I found the infinitely recursive folder chain with projectName \projectName\projectName\projectName\... inside of the Eclipse workspace. Hopefully someone knows the solution to this problem. It is very frustrating...
BTW, the too-long filename fix is to go down into the projectName folders and share a folder way down in the path with full permissions. Then map a drive to that folder. This will shorten the path so that you can work with it. You may have to do this more than once. You can also rename the folders to a single letter to shorten the path. I was able to manually delete it using the above methods.
