The Resource Manager has been modified in some subtle ways. First, GNO/ME makes sure that the CurResourceApp value is always correct before a process makes a Resource Manager call. Second, all open resource files are the property of the Kernel. When a GetOpenFileRefnum call is made, a new refnum is dup(2)'d to allow the process to access the file. Having the Kernel control resource files also allows all processes to share SYS.RESOURCES without requiring each process to explicitly open it.
