The parser that Bison generates never reads a file, but merely processes
the numbers and semantic values that the lexer hands over to it. So if you
have a problem in how lexemes are handled (like a cutoff at seven
characters), that cannot be a problem in Bison.

So it is not possible to guess what is going on, unless you give at least
some extra information about it.
