Calibre export/import will take care of any platform differences in the database or more likely the configuration files, I sooner trust Kovid to know about those differences than me.

Pre export/import I recall helping someone to move from Linux to Windows, can't recall the details but the calibre move it wasn't smooth sailing. Since then I've used import/export to move from calibre from Windows to Mac, and Linux to Mac without issue.
