Description

Running 'mvn clean install -Psunny' on 1.6 today I got the following

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.6:single (assemble-native-tarball) on project accumulo-native: Execution assemble-native-tarball of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.6:single failed: group id 'SOMEBIGNUMBER` is too big ( > 2097151 ). Use STAR or POSIX extensions to overcome this limit -> [Help 1]

See this faq at https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/faq.html#tarFileModes. Setting the tarLongFileMode = posix fixes the issue in server/native/pom.xml, but I am not sure the implications.
