Ok now I see the source of my confusion. I assumed that because Resorcerer
opened these .rsrc files and showed me a list of resources, the files had no
data fork. I appears now that what Resorcerer was actually doing was
reading the data fork and displaying the resources as if they were in the
resource fork. Man, that's misleading!

In Resorcerer the way you can tell the resource file is in the data fork is that it doesn't display the "<DF>" pseudo-resource for accessing the data fork. Also, if you zoom the window you'll see that the resource fork size is zero and the data fork size is non-zero. I agree that it might help if it were a little more explicit about this.
