How about CHGSYSLIBL?

                  Change System Library List - Help                  
                                                                     
The Change System Library List (CHGSYSLIBL) command changes the      
system portion of the library list for the job in which the command  
is entered.  You can specify if the library is added to the          
beginning of the system portion of the library list, or removed from 
that list.  The library QSYS cannot be added to or removed from the  
system portion of the library list.

You can change the system value QSYSLIBL so that your new library appears
above QSYS in the system library list.

I have done that so as to have exit programs on commands for secutity
purposes and not changed the commands in QSYS.

It also will run the customised versions of the commands after an upgrade,
although I have a CL to run that will recreate the commands from QSYS.
