 From [http://tekartist.org/2010/08/18/wordpress-custom-post-types-catch/
 stephdau's blog post]:

 {{{
 When dealing with WordPress custom post types, be sure that the
 namespace/value you use as an identifier for your post_type is less then
 or equal to 20 characters. The DB column which holds the said value is a
 varchar(20).
 }}}

 WordPress should throw either a PHP Notice or an admin_notices error
 warning that the post type name cannot be longer than 20 characters and
 fail to register the post type.

 Also applies to register_post_status.
