I submitted a patch for mdb-export.c to:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=302294&group_id=2294&func=browse

[I think I might have got the URL wrong in a previous
post]

that allows you to specify the row delimiter for
exactly this reason.  I was then able to export using
'|' to mark the end of the row and then tell MySQL to
import the data with LINES TERMINATED BY '|'.  It was
part of some changes I made to do something like
mysqldump.  I have not tested this on any other
backend.
