The variable table only allows 48 characters for the variable name. When it exceeds this the setting do not get loaded from the DB and breaks a few things. I've attached a patch, but please check it thoroughly. I'm a newbie when it comes to drupal development.

Thanks,

True, this is definitely a limitation of using the settings table. Failing in some cases (when two fields have very similar names) is better than failing all the time. Though I'd really suggest using shorter type/field names to avoid the problem altogether. Committed and will be in 1.2. Thanks!
