Hey Dave,
The problem is that the database row is simply too big: MySQL can only handle row sizes of up to 65,000 KB or so of VARCHARs.
Try changing some of the fields to smaller or bigger sizes. Larger sizes - Mediumtext's & Texts - don't get included in the row size count.
[btw, better error handling for this situation WILL be included in 2.1.9 - I've meant to get it into every 2.1.x release but never got around to it.]
