No, that's nonsense.  Just fix the original variable so that it's not a
million characters long.

Using a shorter variable is good if it simplifies the code like so:

        struct foo *foo = &my->random_variable[INDEX].whatever;

You've reduced 4 variable names and a butt load of punctuation down to
just "foo" so that we don't have to look at it repeated over and over
on every line.

But if you're just using a temporary variable because the original
variable name was poorly chosen, that's not the right thing.
