You didn't say which version you are using, but 6.5-current returns a
more helpful error message:
ERROR: CREATE TABLE/SERIAL implicit sequence name must be less than 32 characters
Sum of lengths of 'globalafvigelse' and 'globalafvigelse' must be less than 27
This is forced by the naming conventions for the underlying sequence and
index objects, which look like "TABLE_FIELD_seq" and so forth.
