I think this might be what you are looking for:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/PHPBB/Users_Integration
Hopefully this helps.
No, that won't help. We couldn't even get basic integration working:
none of our users with diacritic letters in their username could log
into the wiki.
Besides, the solution at the above link only attempts basic
integration of user tables, nothing more.
Wang Jerry's wishes are immodest indeed, and they sound like science
fiction to me... Maybe in 2010 or 2015 these things will be possible,
not today, alas...

The username restrictions are listed as an issue in the PHPBB integration page.
Easy solution (from a moving forwards point of view): get everyone to
change usernames to ones that MediaWiki can handle, and use the
Restrict Username stuff on the PHPBB side.
Sure, people will scream a bit, but if you really need the feature it
will be one round of upset users and changes, and then it all just
works.
