Uhm, did you escape embedded NULLs in the file?  Did you byte compare the files
you've stored and retrieved to see if they REALLY got corrupted?

MySQL doesn't know a thing about files.  Actually, it doesn't have any
information about what it stores.  It just stores data in a column.  So, every
kind of data can be stored in a database.
