Hello,

Your data source has problem. 
You should consult data vendor,
they should be supplying EMASTER/XMASTER files because only
those files handle long names (52 characters).
Only very ancient MASTER files have limit of 16 chars.
New plugin attempts to read from EMASTER/XMASTER and then
upto 52 characters are read. Only when your data source
does not supply EMASTER/XMASTER it switches to legacy and
ancient MASTER file.

Best regards,
