Re: *ACTGRPDFN overrides don't work under system()

Hi, Gene:

What about calling QCMDEXC directly from C, instead of
using the "system()" API?  There is an "include" member in
QSYSINC/H for QCMDEXC that "prototypes" it in C... ;-)

(It is my understanding that the OVRxxx commands behave
differently with regard to where in the call stack they insert
the overrides, when run from QCMDEXC, so that they will
"do the right thing", eg., when OVRDBFs etc. are issued from
within an RPG program, via QCMDEXC.)

Of course, this might not "fix" the problem, but it could be
a "work-around"?
