AFAIK that's just the raw resource fork contents exposed in that extended 
attribute. I'm not aware of any API to read these files beyond the Resource 
Manager API.

If you change your opinion on reading it yourself, I wrote some code a while 
ago that reads resource forks:

https://github.com/uliwitness/ReClassicfication/blob/master/InterfaceLib/FakeResources.c

(There are more files in that folder, check out the entire project at 
https://github.com/uliwitness/ReClassicfication/)

Note that the code for writing out resource forks is still buggy, but the 
reading code works fine.
