You're most likely calling 'fclose()' on the first file handle.
Please check this before anything else.  In case you missed this point
in the library documentation, after handing off a FILE * to a
successful call of ov_open, your application must not touch that FILE *
for any reason.  Libvorbisfile will close it for you.

Although I appreciate the time you took to make an example program, I
have no tools available to unarchive a .sit.hqx Mac file (there are no
tools to do so on Linux).  Secondly, a debugger backtrace is more
useful when submitting an initial bug report, although both an example
and a backtrace together is naturally best of all.

Without the backtrace and because I cannot read your source, you've
not yet demonstrated evidence that the bug is in the vorbis libs.

You see other people having different problems.
