It does not do the desmosaic.

But what it does in the DNG conversion process is to add metadata about 
the white balance and the color matrix that the demosaic process will 
use, values usually hardcoded into converters for proprietary raw 
formats like CR2 (and specific per model). *hint* it is likely the same 
values that Adobe use for the raw processing.
That's where I would dig to see what are the differences.
