When you generated this dump file, did you remember to use the --max_allowed_packet parameter to make sure that mysqldump didn't create any extended insert statements larger than your server wants to handle? It could be crapping out because at line 1189 you exceeded max_allowed_packet. To be safe always use a value of 16M or less when setting max_allowed_packet. Check your server's variables for the value it's currently using SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'max%'; I don't know for sure that this is going to be the problem but it's always something to look at when you start dealing in larger dumpfiles.
