By default the nickname (if none given) is truncated to 10 characters
(see sanitize_nick function). However, when creating a LAN server, the
prefix "lan-" is added. Thus if the username is longer than 10 (mine is
15) it gets truncated to 10 characters plus the 4 of the server prefix.
However, when creating a LAN server, you get an error because the server
name is longer than 12 characters.
The attached patch fixes this issue.
