According to section 4.2 of the MIB review guidelines (see 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ops-mib-review-guidelines-04.txt)
this is not something that needs to be corrected.

That should be a lower-case 'i' (in which case the directive will
mean "ignore names over 32 characters").  When I do that (and put
in fake mib-2 numbers in place of XXX) I get this from the smilint
e-mail robot:

smilint -m -s -e -l 6 -i namelength-32 EPON-DEVICE-MIB

no errors found.

smilint -m -s -e -l 6 -i namelength-32 DOT3-EFM-EPON-MIB

no errors found.

So, I don't think there are any purely SMI issues to worry about.
For sure it's not necessary to shorten the names.

I agree with the above.
