I know what you are talking about.  Some some reason, wblocking will loose the mapping coordinates.  Here's what you do:
1. Open your drawing
2. Erase everything out of the drawing that you don't want inserted into the master dwg.
3. Save the file with another name.
4. Open your master dwg file and insert the file you just created.

The trick is NOT to wblock OUT.  This will work.
