Somehow I managed to delete my admin account when upgrading to latest version. A query in MySQL shows it as an empty set.
Is it possible to restore that account in MySQL or to enable a new account with admin priveleges? Please advise at your earliest convenience.
Thanks!

By empty, do you mean the admin member field is gone from the table? If so, go into PHPMyAdmin or some other MySQL management and put the field level to 3 on the user you want to be admin. ( in the usebb_members table )

You will also have to set the id field right as it was before you deleted the account. So probably id will have to be 1.
