Well, I don’t know if this will help much. But it’s all I can offer – so maybe you can accomplish it with a bit of work.
I *just* converted my MT blog to WordPress the day before yesterday, and I *did* use the export feature that MT gives you. Basically, when you do that, it opens a new browser window and has everything in a nice TXT format for you to copy, paste into Notepad and save. Then it was an easy upload to WordPress – took me all of 5 minutes.
Since you can’t export anymore, perhaps you could go through your files that you saved and convert them into the format the WordPress can read. This’ll be some work on your part – especially if it’s a long-running blog (mine was all the way back to 2002). But if it helps…
Basically, it started with the very first post, and the newest one was the last in the file. The format looked like so:

COMMENT:
I showed you two of them so you could see how the line breaks and stuff worked between each post. I also lef tthe dates and times so you could see how those were formatted. You will also notice the pings, trackbacks and stuff – and notice that if there is no comment on the page, then there’s no spot for it to appear.
If there’s comments, they will look like this:
COMMENT:
AUTHOR: Shelly
EMAIL: email address here
IP: IP address here
URL: commenter’s URL here
DATE: 09/28/2002 06:40:14 PM
just a test 🙂

and there’s two line breaks between the —– at the end of the comment and the next post.
All of it was saved in a single TXT file and imported to WordPress no problem. I know it sucks, but hopefully that helps!
