I had the numbers wrong. In the original code it was cropped at 15, not
at 10 like in my diff. I also changed it a bit to avoid negative
argaments. Attached the new diff from version 4.5.2. 


   if ($object->uid && $object->name) {
     // Shorten the name when it is too long or it will break many
tables.
    if (strlen($object->name) > variable_get('user_name_crop', 15)+5)
{
      $name = truncate_utf8($object->name,
variable_get('user_name_crop', 15)) .'...';
     }
     else {
       $name = $object->name;

Some people might not like it when long usernames are cropped in the
node haeder. This patch can be applied to includes/common.inc version
4.5.2 and creates a new variable 'user_name_crop' to adjust the crop
length.
