I can not promise that you will have less problems, but you could try
my longtable.sty.

longtable is available from shsu and aston, and I think stuttgart.
Instructions on accessing shsu appear at the end.

Most questions like this can be answered by picking up a copy of
David Jones macro index, the entry for longtable says:

> Name: longtable.sty
> Description: LaTeX style option defining a multi-page version of
>     tabular.
> Keywords: LaTeX, array, tabular, multi-page
> Author: David Carlisle <carlisle@cs.man.ac.uk>
> Supported: yes
> Latest Version: v3.2, 9 Apr 1992
> Archives: shsu*
> Note: Documentation requires Mittelbach's doc.sty.
> See Also: supertab.sty

A new version will be released within the next few weeks, after the
promised new version of doc.sty is released. In the case of longtable,
only the documentation will change, not the actual code.

If you would like to retrieve the file, include the command:
 SENDME STY.LONGTABLE
in the body of a mail message to FILESERV@SHSU.BITNET (FILESERV@SHSU.edu). 
If you would like an overview of FILESERV, include the command HELP in your
message.  For anonymous ftp access, use Niord.SHSU.edu (192.92.115.8) and
look in the directory [FILESERV.STY].
