Hi Kurt, I have committed your patch and your new spss_long.sav example file, tested things and uploaded a new version of 'foreign', namely 0.8-27 to CRAN.
I vaguely remember that other useRs have asked for long-label support in the past, so if you are (or know of) such a user, we'd be glad if you'd test the new foreign package, once it will be available for update.packages().
