Actually there is no extra magic, Prefab uses the trunk. So its pure Away magic 
:)
The only custom diff being overriding the filemateriallib in abstractparser to 
fit internal requirements of the app and unique (re)naming of each meshes.
Few checks are also done during the parsing, but if you do not get any warning, 
then the result should be identical
once loaded into your project.

If the file doesn't hold animation, why not trade it for a lightweight .awd or 
.as3 export from Prefab?
