Not me.. but I have a cohort at Rackspace who has had his firewall running 
regular syslog into MySQL.  But I think that was a totally custom table he 
did for himself.. Just a DIY setup... Nothing really "standard".

Have you just tried creating the table?  Do you know what schema it's 
expecting?  Have you consulted google on the expected schema?

My first google hit + string searching reveals:

"The Nulog 1.1.0 release has a bug.
The mysql dumpfile does not contain the conntrack_ulog table.
This has been reported to the nulog email account."

Reference from the netfilter mail list here:

Looks like you need to rebuild your database from a non buggy ulogd.mysqldump 
sql input file.  Maybe you can get a good one from v 1.0.2.
