Exactly what I did because fortunately there weren't too many chances
of weird stuff in 2000 records (sed -e 's/,""/,/g').
Anyway with NULL AS '' and without it I can't still import NULL
without pre-processing.
I thought it may be missing total support of UTF-8 or if I did
something wrong or it is actually a "feature".
