Oh.  For some reason, I had assumed FSOpenFork was just the FSRef  
equivalent of FSpOpenDF/FSpOpenRF.  Thanks for setting me straight.

That sort of makes it difficult to open a file without calling on  
deprecated APIs, doesn't it?  I guess you can turn an FSRef into a  
path and go that route, but paths aren't without problems either,  
from what I've heard.  I think I'll go back to using FSSpecs for now...
