Comment (by neteler):

 Your statement longer than 8192 chars but

 {{{
 include/dbmi.h
 142:#define DB_SQL_MAX      8192
 }}}

 So we need to increase this definition to address the problem with tables
 having a big number of columns with long names.

 Can we just define more chars or are there any sideeffects?
