I assume you are running Mac OS X?  It seems to be a problem with the
error-checking in the carbonfile code, but I'm not 100% sure since I
don't have any experience with that OS.

To whoever (John Goerzen?) wrote the get_carbonfile() function:  maybe
it shouldn't catch the MacOS.error exception?  It seems like it
catches it, and returns a bad cfile which write_carbonfile chokes on.
