Hey, that surprises me ;-) Give what you said, my next attempt would have
been constructing an open Apple Event... (Don't know if it would work,
because I don't know when the normal resolution of symlinks & aliases
happens, but it's what I would have tried. Next up would have been fork/exec
the open command.)
It seems to me that this is a feature that you'll need to be proactive about
testing against new releases. Resolution of symlinks & aliases is normally
considered a feature, so unless it's explicitly documented that your
technique doesn't do this, you may be vulnerable to an OS update adding a
feature and breaking your stuff...
