The problem is clearly lack of ALTER TABLE privelege to the user. It could be that while your setting permit you to run ALTER queries while connecting localy, the user may not have permissions to do so.
You can do a simple test via the following script:
*place the script inside the FORUM's main dir*
<?php
include_once "GLOBALS.php";
fud_use('err.inc');
fud_use('db.inc');
q("ALTER TABLE fud2_pmsg ADD INDEX(offset)");
?>
If you get a query failure then recheck your permissions, otherwise let me know and I'll try to replicate the problem

There are other tables that can affect the permissions of user to run an alter query.
Run the following query:
SELECT Alter_priv,User,Db,Host FROM db;

| The requested query! |
mysql> select Alter_priv,User,db,host from db
-> ;
+------------+------+---------+------+
| Alter_priv | User | db | host |
+------------+------+---------+------+
| Y | | test | % |
| Y | | test\_% | % |
+------------+------+---------+------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

So do I have to add my badmin user to this db table?

I believe so.
When you use MySQL GRANT command to give user priveleges it actually adds entries to this very table not the users tables. FOr users tables the values by GRANT command are actually set to N.

USE [forum database]
GRANT ALL PRIVELEGES ON * TO badmin
and I checked the db database when done - badmin was added.
