What happens for you if it doesn't crash? Does the latex export just work and produce a pdf with a set of properly nested lists? Would you be willing to sent me .tex your latex export produces? It seems unlikely, but maybe org use a different/additional latex library on Linux than it does in Windows. Or alternatively, TexLive installs different/more libraries on Windows. Anyway, it would be nice to figure it out. I googled quickly for the hint you mentioned but couldn't find it.

Again, this doesn't crash here.

Also, the manual already gives hint about how to support more than four
levels of nesting for lists.
