I don't see what the problem is.

PBXGetVolInfoSync can't be called directly from CFM non-Carbon apps on 
Mac OS 8.0 and 8.1. MoreFiles gives you CallPBXGetVolInfoSync glue to 
use in those cases. 

It souns to me like you are running your code on Mac OS 8.0 or 8.1, and 
you are weak-linking against interface lib, and you are either making 
direct calls to PBXGetVolInfoSync, instead of using 
CallPBXGetVolInfoSync, or you are somehow causing MoreFiles to #define 
CallPBXGetVolInfoSync to PBXGetInfoSync (maybe by #defining 
TARGET_API_MAC_CARBON), but then doing something wrong (such as linking 
against InterfaceLib after you defined TARGET_API_MAC_CARBON).

Hth,
