The schema in
trunk/gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/csv/ogrcsvlayer.cpp?rev=27748
looks correct under
asGeonamesFieldDesc[] =

but what probably happens is that the code truncates "alternatenames"
when it meets comma that is separating the list entries. Here is an 
example about what I have in "alternatenames"

"Pic de Font Blanca,Pic du Port"
