Hello.


As said at:

  http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Information_functions.html  



"If you insert many rows at the same time with an insert statement, 

LAST_INSERT_ID() returns the value for the first inserted row."

LOAD DATA INFILE inserts several rows a time, so this is a usual

behavior of LAST_INSERT_ID().
