Solved the problem - it was my stupid mistake, I was using the zone9x.exe from 3.4 rather than the new zone.exe (since it had a different filename, it wasn't overwritten when I installed 3.6). Since I use a custom "boot2zones.bat" (you only really need 2 zoneservers up with minilogin) and hadn't updated it, I was still running the 3.4 zoneserver which not surprisingly was incompatible.
Anyway EQEmu now works OK, and seems much more stable than earlier versions in terms of zoning, linkdeath etc (the lack of stability was the one thing I found most annoying in EQEmu) I've encountered a few bugs (notably with merchants and the combat system) but overall it seems OK. All the NPCs seem to be in the right places and the faction values seem to work (they were rather messed up in 3.4, despite appearing OK in the DB).
I'll post here when I've got the EQEmu page up on my site.
