The two ‘icns’ resources appear to be identical, and if I subtract the size of one of them from the Finder alias’s size, I get the size of the NSURL-created alias. So I’d guess that the duplicate icon resources are the reason for the discrepancy you’re seeing, and the alias files you’re creating with NSURL aren’t lacking any important information.

Thanks, Charles. I guess that makes it arguably a Finder bug.
