I did a quick test with the MITAB library's test programs (MITAB what 
OGR uses to read MIF files) and it worked fine with the following MID 
records:

42, 123.45, ""
100, "100.5", "12345678901234567890"
100, "100.5", "12345678901234567890"
100, "100.5", "12345678901234567890"

Can you please provide a test file that reproduces the problem?
