Another evil of keeping postids in the permalinks

Okay, it looks like all of my built up links on technorati are toast.
When you export WordPress to XML and import it to the new page, it does not keep the post IDs, therefore my old permalinks which include %post_id% are invalid even with the Permalink Migration plugin. Google, Yahoo and most search engines should [...]
