Hi Mike,
line 412: trim(curr_var.name,8)
is for trimming variable names that are shorter then 8 letters long. Traditionally SPSS supported variable names only up to 8 letters length. Newer SPSS files contain auxiliary information that maps long variable names to traditional 8-letter names and this auxiliary information is handled by some other code. So memisc
should be able to handle long variable names (in my test cases it did so).
There might be two reasons for your problems - for some reasons this long variable name information somehow was not in the SPSS file, or SPSS have changed their file format.
Can I ask you to send me some example data that I can use for debugging?
Thanks,

Hi Martin:
My apologies. The problem appears to have been connected to the outdated version of R that I was using (3.1.2). I've been dividing my work across two computers lately, and I didn't realize that one of the machines was lagging behind in terms of software updates. After updating to version 3.2.1, everything worked as expected. Thanks for the quick response and your willingness to diagnose the (non-)issue!
