I am trying query QSYS2.VIEWS, but I get different results from SQLGETAUTH

If I run the below query on V5R4, the result is a 3. On V6R1 it is a 0.
SELECT SYSIBM.SQLGETAUTH('WDMONTI2', 'DEMOAUT', 'FILE ', '*OBJEXIST ', X'FF3C') FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1

What I would like to do is call this function myself, testing for *CHANGE authority.

I tried this on V6R1.
SELECT SYSIBM.SQLGETAUTH('WDMONTI2', 'DEMOAUT', 'FILE ', '*CHANGE ', X'FF3C') FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1

But it returns 0. I've tried passing in various hex codes but I don't see a pattern.

Thanks
