Not to beat an apparently dead horse...
My problem was that interactively I could not get the following statement to
execute (on Win NT, myISAM table, mySQL 3.23.49-nt):
insert mytable values (1, 2 ,3, LOAD_FILE('c:\myfile.ext'));
However, I found this would work:
insert mytable (col1, col2, col3) values (1,2,3);
update mytable set col4 = LOAD_FILE('c:\myfile.ext')) where col1 = 1;
Is this unusual? Is there something I am missing here?

If you do :
$ cat >test.file
Some text. ^D $
And then use LOAD_FILE(), the data doesn't show up.
But if you do:
$ cat >test.file
Some text.
^D $
Then the text shows up. Better saying, if you create a file without a
trailing newline, the text does not show up, but if you put a trailing
newline, it appears.
