On Leopard, you can now create an NSImage from a Carbon IconRef

Icons.h defines a whole heap of additional icons that you can then get to. Something like this:

IconRef carbonIcon;

NSImage* folderImage = nil;
OSStatus err = GetIconRef(kOnSystemDisk, kSystemIconsCreator, kGenericFolderIcon, &carbonIcon);
if (!err)
{
folderImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithIconRef:carbonIcon];
ReleaseIconRef(carbonIcon);
}

Among the new named images available on Leopard, I see:

	NSImageNameFolderBurnable
	NSImageNameFolderSmart

I don't see an image name for a regular, unadorned folder. Have I overlooked it?

If you don't find anything better, the poor man's solution is - [NSWorkspace iconForFile:]. If necessary, you can even name that image with -[NSImage setName:] so you'll be able to refer to it from nibs. It won't appear in IB, but if you register the name early enough in application startup, it will work at runtime.
