I don't know, mind you, I'm just wondering out loud.
Yep, I think, renaming is your friend, in this case...

I think, going forward, the .mobi file extension tipifies that the file is truly an ebook, whereas, historically, in PalmOS, .prc had a somewhat confusing beginning as a ebook file format (it shares it's file extension with Palm Resource programs/files).

So, since newer software will accomodate the .mobi file extension, going forward, it's a non-issue. For older software, it's a rename away. Just my take.
