I'm confused by your setup:
<arg0 name="fieldname" key="label.bin.title"/>
The name attribute should be the name of the relevant validation rule
listed in the depends clause. You only have maxlength in depends and
fieldname isn't a Struts validation.
What happens when you do this?
<arg0 name="maxlength" key="label.bin.title"/>
