Here's what I did to solve it. I ran "mysqld --skip-grant" as root, then I logged in with "mysql" without any password as user root.
Then I ran "repair table [bla] use_frm;" where [bla] represents all the names of the tables that I found in /var/lib/mysql/mysql/ (without the suffix, of course). Now my mysql users had gone, but at least mysqld starts again. Now I had to recreate two users in my database (root with supercow powers and a regular user), and then ran "dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0" to configure the debian-sys-maint user.
