Another solution for those of us who can't make the jump to Hibernate 4.1.3.
Simply use /*'*/:=/*'*/ inside the query. Hibernate code treats everything between ' as a string (ignores it). MySQL on the other hand will ignore everything inside a blockquote and will evaluate the whole expression to an assignement operator.
I know it's quick and dirty, but it get's the job done without stored procedures, interceptors etc.
