It's best to backup databases individually and then you can restore all of them except for the mysql control database, which is clearly present in your case. About the only thing I can think of is to open your sql71.sql dump and edit out the mysql database. This will fix the problem but you will need to use a system with a lot of free memory to do the edit. Hope this helps.
