I'm not that surprised. ID3 2.3 is kind of brain dead when it comes to multiple entries in tag fields (frames). The spec only provides for multiple entries in artist and composer, and that is "/". Tag software use their own conventions when adding multiple entries in other fields. 2.4 uses a null as separator in any field, so much more flexible. For this reason I had added APE2 tags on all my mp3 files which doesn't have this limitation.
You might need to look at the file with a hex editor to see what Piccard is actually putting the file (I think it should be something like TXXX=musicbrainz artist id) at least for 2.3 tags. I think if you are in mp3tag you need to use \\ as the separator for mp3tag to treat it as a multi-value field.
