How to repeat:
mysql> create table blah (a int, PRIMARY KEY(a));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> insert into blah values (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7);
Query OK, 7 rows affected (0.00 sec)

+---+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> insert into blah set a=5 on duplicate key update a=99;
Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> select last_insert_id();
+------------------+
| last_insert_id() |
+------------------+
|                0 |                  <------ The correct answer here is 5.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ and the instructions on
how to report a bug at http://bugs.mysql.com/how-to-report.php

According to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/information-functions.html#function_last-insert-id:

"For MySQL 5.1.12 and later, LAST_INSERT_ID() (no arguments) returns the first  *automatically* generated value successfully inserted for an AUTO_INCREMENT column as a result of the most recently executed INSERT statement."

In your case value inserted not automatically, but explicitly. Same behavior for regular INSERT:

create table blah (a int, PRIMARY KEY(a));
insert into blah values (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7);
select last_insert_id();
last_insert_id()
0
