Hello Juggledad, I've solved it!
I thought it might be a database error or, as you suggested, even a host error. You won't believe what it was...maybe you will...
The blog from which I exported settings is in English, the second blog is in Romanian or, rather, was until I changed it to English so I could work on it. I had a notion that if I reset the default WordPress language of the second blog to Romanian before importing the settings then it might just work. Sure enough, that was the solution - import the exported settings into a blog only when the blog the settings are being exported into is in its default setup language.
I can't believe that that is all it took. I've spent several hours fiddling with the blog, its settings, the theme, the plugins...I even thought about resetting the language but decided the error could only be elsewhere. As a last ditch attempt I eventually did. Wish I would listen to my intuition more often :-)
Thanks for your reply.
