Ok, sorry to post a reply to my own question, but I've solved this. There were two problems, one was mine and one was FUDForum's.

My problem was that FUDForum (or PHP more precisely I assume) somehow didn't like my www root directory. The root directory had both spaces and square brackets [ ] in it, not sure which of those caused the problem as I removed them both in favor of a less convoluted name. Once I simplified the directory name, it stopped trying to call the fe() function.

The part that was FUDForum's problem of course is that it was trying to call a missing function to clue me in on the directory naming error I'd made. After a little digging around, I found the file install-cli.php in the CVS, and it had both the fe() and the pf() functions in it. Putting both of those functions into my install.php made it work correctly, which got it to report to me that it couldn't read from my root directory (actually, root + 'sql/').

I take it most people would never find this issue as it only rears it's head if you have a directory name it doesn't like. FYI, my root dir was "c:\www\sitename.com [new]\".

Cool
