I do this kind of thing a lot, and find it's much much easier to have MySQL on both machines and use mysqldump. A big advantage of two mysql specific installs is that you can use mysqldump with the field name option and it will still work fine even if you are changing models. I write little bash scripts that dump everything, drop the tables, call manage.py syncdb to create the new tables, and then refill the tables.
I would honestly say it will take much less time for him to get mysql running on the laptop ( which is simple with fink ) than to figure out a nice porting system.
