We need to change the maximum length of table/column name lengths, and it looks
as if changing NAMEDATALEN in src/include/postgres_ext.h and recompiling
postgres.
2 questions:
a) Do I need to dump the database and reload ? (my guess is yes but only a
guess ...)
b) any caveats or warnings

Yes. (Any reasonably modern backend will in fact refuse to start
if pg_control shows an incompatible nameDataLen.) This is not a
lot different from changing --enable-integer-datetimes, for instance.
