Initially the DMPSYSOBJ OBJ(QWMSYSVAL) CONTEXT(QSYS) looks like a possible 
way of getting the list of system values.  Until you get way further down 
into that resultant spool file.  Then the formatting doesn't look quite so 
pretty.  What starts out as (after a few lines of fluff):
+....9....+..
  *QDECFMT 
  *QDATFMT 
  *QDATSEP 
  *QDATE 
  *QYEAR 
  *QMONTH 
  *QDAY 
  *QTIME 
  *QHOUR 
  *QMINUTE 

quickly degenerates into:
+....9....+....0....+....1....+....2
  *QLOGOUTPUT                      *
 
  *QALWJOBITP                      *
  *                                *
 
  *QSYS      QSYS2     QHLPSYS   QU*
  *SRSYS                           *
  *                                *
  *                                *
  *                        QTEMP   *
  *  QGPL                          *
  *                                *
 
  *                    QCTL      QS*
  *YS      UPS       QUSRSYS   *NON*
  *E               /MDY    ENUUS $0*
  *110200010000000000050000000002*D*
  *MPUSRJOB1 102EF8C*NONE          *

So counting on the format of this can be as ugly as parsing a spool file. 
Perhaps parse the WRKSYSVAL spool file to get the list of system values, 
then use the api, or RTVSYSVAL to stuff the values somewhere.
