That is the point of the "Have you manually modified FUDforum's SQL structure? (leave unchecked if unsure)." checkbox in the upgrade script?
I would suspect it would not modify the sql so as to not break stuff but that is not what it does.
Suggestion: If this is checked, it should simply print any alter table queries to the screen rather than run them in order to allow the administrator to run them manually with any necessary alterations.
If there is another purpose of this checkbox another with this functions would be a nice addition.
I have my user's table as a view of 2 other tables to integrate my forums fully with the rest of my site, and this (not surprisingly) breaks the upgrade script. Doing this would allow upgrade script to still nicely run and let me do the sql as needed manually.

The point of this check is to determine if the forum needs to DROP any extra fields or indexes. If you customized the structure then you'll probably want to avoid that from happening. All the alters are going to occur in either case.
