As far as I can see the game does not use that file. If you decrypt it and unzip it it contains a bunch of .m files which have the same format as the superbundle definitions. What does it do and can we use it for something?

If you're still asking yourself that question, it might have to do with endianness (the extension BOM would stand for "byte order mark"). Since Win32 runs on little endian x86 CPUs only, this file is effectively useless because if the data is in the required format from the start, no byte swaps are needed at load time.
