Long file names support on A/UX 1.1?

I noticed that the filenames for gcc and emacs were >14 characters on
apple.com, and just as large when untarring the files on my system.

Is there a way to turn long filenames on for A/UX 1.1 or is this just 
because Apple is storing there stuff up on a BSD machine (a vax I assume).

I'd much prefer long file names as I'm used to this nice feature on HP-UX.
