Thanks Sinisa for the reply!

There really isn't any binary data.. and, we are calling
mysql_escape_string.. here is the snippet of code:

// START SNIP

    int state;
    unsigned int encoded_str_length = 0;
    MYSQL_RES *result;
    MYSQL_ROW row;
    char *sql, *escaped_data;
    escaped_data = new char[2*strlen(data)+1]; //required by mysql
    sql = new char[2*strlen(data)+600];// +1

    encoded_str_length = mysql_escape_string(escaped_data,data,strlen(data));

    sprintf(sql,"%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%d%s%s%s",
       "REPLACE into reflectivity.measurement_extended_data set
                content_typeID = ",content_typeID,
                ", contentID = ",contentID,
                ", arrayID = ",arrayID,
                ", positionID = ",positionID,
                ", testID = ",testID,
                ", iteration = ",iteration,
                ", test_locationID = ",test_locationID,
                ", date_added = ",date_added,
                ", added_by = ",added_by,
                ", data = '",escaped_data,"'");

    state = mysql_query(connection,sql);

    delete [ ] sql;
    delete [ ] escaped_data;

    if (state != 0)
    {

      Application->MessageBox(mysql_error(connection),NULL,MB_OK);
      return 0;
    }

// END SNIP

And, as I mentioned, if I do something like:

bin/mysql <-u & -p> <database> < foo.sql

where foo.sql contains the query checked for sanity the exact same result
occurs.
