15 char job name limit in PBSPro causing errors

[GoogleCodeExporter]

From Mark:

And seeing that we have had these recently:
1001210.epic      yabi-task-99991  bioflow           00:00:00 F smallq          
1001211.epic      yabi-task-99992  bioflow           00:00:00 F smallq

I would say that you've hit 100,000 tasks and gone over the 15 character limit 
for job name.

Error is:

SSH exited 2 with message qsub: illegal -N value\nusage: qsub [-a date_time] 
[-A account_string] [-c interval]\n\t[-C directive_prefix] [-e path] [-h ] [-I
