We have been debugging some strange behavior associated with calling PBHCreate
where the file created would "disappear" to the standard file package.

Tech Note 102 says that if we don't set the ioFlVersNum to zero, this will
happen (it also says that this will only happen on MFS, yet we are using HFS).
Well, we did this and it still happened.  So we tried setting ioFVersNum to
zero, and the problem went away.

Can some Apple Guru (that's probably you Larry) please make a statement from
Apple that says that this was the case and proper fix so that we don't have
our code later causing new versions of the file system to wig out?

/* Also, we did notice a note in Inside Mac IV (p. 120) that said that the
ioParam.ioVersNum should be zero.  Does this carry on for ioFVersNum in the
fileParm variant?  Furthermore, for PBCreate (not PBHCreate), ioFVersNum is
considered to be an input, but is left out for PBHCreate.  Was it supposed
to be an input for PBHCreate also? */
