Rob, I have experienced a similar problem a few months back between two different versions of mySQL, both running on CentOS 5. The problem was caused by mysqldump writing a bad CREATE TABLE statement into the dump file for one of the tables. More specifically, one column had to small of a size allocated to it (and definitely different than what was in the originating database) so the import kept failing because UTF-8 characters could not fit into it. Manually fixing the size in the dump file took care of the problem.
