MacPython 2.3 can't create a Carbon.File.FSSpec for a non-
existent file. 

Example (where 'NEWFILE' is name of a file still to be created):

from Carbon.File import *

f = FSSpec(u'/Users/has/NEWFILE')

--> MacOS.Error: (-43, 'File not found')

I'm fairly sure this is a duplicate... at least, you can find mails on 
pythonmac-sig where I work around this.  It's a bit of a pain.

Ah, yes, it's 706592.  Closing.
