Just following up here in case someone has the same problem:

So my problem was that PHP kept complaining it was running out of memory when I was trying to import my forum on Linux (originally exported on Windows). It didn't matter how high I set the memory limit, PHP would always run out, going so far as to consume the entire system memory if I let it. I tired a couple different versions of PHP and it didn't seem to make a bit of difference. On one of my various re-installs of FUDForum I tried selecting a different database type (the default was always MySQLi, I chose PDO: MySQL in this case). It still failed but this time I got a different error. The error was "Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message ... 08S01: Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes". I changed the MAX_ALLOWED_PACKET setting from the default of 1MB to 512MB in MySQLs my.cnf file and this seems to have solved the problem with either database type selection.

My guess is this doesn't really have anything to do with going from Windows to Linux but has to do either with the size of the database or of an individual forum but I'm just guessing. Anyway, after much frustration and many e-mails to naudefj (thanks again!) the problem seems to be solved.
