I came across a section in my code where I call FSRef_fopen(),

Use FSRefMakePath and pass the path to fopen.

Well, that sounds like a straightforward way to go, but is it bullet-proof?

No, it isn't. However, fopen() is a path-based API; if you want to use fopen() and related APIs, that's the cost. This is what happens when you switch the underpinnings of an OS to modern super-duper robust Unix. :-/

 But doesn't the carbon file manager sit on top of  and use the unix APIs?
