Yes, this is a known problem. DataTruncationException was thrown in
driver internally. However, there is one "feature" related to system
tables and to make it work, we removed length checks in driver and let
server do this. Unfortunately server instead of string truncation
error reports "operation cancelled". I will check if we can solve it
somehow.

It would be great if you can fill it as either bug or feature request
for JayBird.
