[csw-maintainers] Checkpgk error when having too long names

[Peter Bonivart]

I was building CSWpm-cgi-session-serialize-yaml and got the following:

gmake: *** [pkgcheck] Error 2

I then shortened the package and catalog name slightly and the error
went away. I assume this is because Solaris package tools truncate the
name or something, or is it in GAR?
