Filename too long

[Tony at ServaCorp.com]

Me, I'd move to a current version.
Source, ./configure ; make; make install
seems to work fine for me on RedHat 6.2, 7.1 assorted Fedora Core.
Workaround is probably to tar the file and rsync the tar.
(If slow connection, tar both ends)
If it's one file of many, easiest whould be to upgrade.
