I don't know whether there is a way to get around this, but multivalue fields that come through Views and Feeds View Parser are imported as single, string values.

For instance:

create Content Type 'paper' with a multivalue 'authors' field
create a View of all papers
add the multivalue 'authors' field
When you import the paper nodes back into the paper content type, all author values will be combined.

The situation above is true if the Group Multiple Values field is checked on the field.

If it is not, there is an array element for each different value of the multivalue field. That means that when this is used with Feeds View Parser, a new node is created for each value of the multivalue field.

I've created a hook in CCK field and suggested the CCK team to integrate it in the module: #1201238: Hook to change the title with a multi value refereces field
I think this module can be benefited from this hook and solve this issue
