I've checked it against the link given by Jellby and that textfile DICTPAGE.txt contains 39925 entries against pruss' 74405 entries.

Comparing
Code:
#volo, velle, volui, -  V                                                                            [XXXAX] :: wish, want, prefer; be willing, will;
#volo, volare, volavi, volatus  V (1st)                                                              [XXXAX] :: fly;
#volo, volonis  N (3rd) M                                                                            [XWXEC] :: volunteers (pl.); (in the Second Punic War);
to
Code:
volo N\nvolo, volonis\nN 3 1 M\nvolunteers (pl.)\n(in the Second Punic War)
volo V I\nvolo, velle, volui, -\nV 6 2\nwish, want, prefer\nbe willing, will
volo V II\nvolo, volare, volavi, volatus\nV 1 1\nfly
volonis N\nSee volo, volonis
it appears that pruss' version contains a lot of indirect references. Which is preferable for automated lookup in stardict.

The \n symbols are mine as part of the preformatting for a Stardict conversion.
I (1)converted the prc-file to a txt-file using calibre. (2) Search&Replaced symbols with notepad++ and (3) changed the first whitespace or comma to a tab with Excel. Then (5) copy&paste back into notepad++ to (6) convert to unix style EOF symbols and convert to UTF-8. Finally (7) I compiled an stardict dictionary with stardict editor.

The result is here.
