Odd, it seemed to work well in our tests...

Anyway, this is what I came up with out of nowhere:

Function AttachMesh(MeshToAttach,Mesh)
	
	For Children = 1 To CountChildren(MeshToAttach)
		Child = GetChild(MeshToAttach,Children)
		For OtherChildren = 1 To CountChildren(Mesh)
			OtherChild = GetChild(Mesh,OtherChildren)
			If EntityName(Child) = EntityName(OtherChild) Then
				EntityParent(Child,OtherChild)
				Exit
			EndIf
		Next
	Next
	
End Function

But, it fails at the first line, saying entity does not exist...when in fact I have passed the two entities to the function. Both are loaded as animated meshes to preserve the bones. Seems simple enough, but I get the feeling I'm missing something...
