With the addition of the cplus- prefix in version 1.31.0, several
files have names which are longer than 15 characters.  It seems that
it would be good to limit the names to 15 characters to enhance
portability.

For example, the following names are greater than 15 characters:

cplus-parse.tab.c    17 chars
cplus-parse.tab.h    17 chars
cplus-parse.output   18 chars
cplus-overload.c     16 chars

One option would be to use a shorter prefix:

c++parse.tab.c    14 chars
c++parse.tab.h    14 chars
c++parse.output   15 chars
c++overload.c     14 chars

Although I could enable long filenames, I think the names should be <=15 chars.
