Wouldn't it be nice to simply use a IBM-provided /include directive in your
program to use such things a qsort, bsearch, cpybla, open, close, connect,
accept, atoi, bind, etc...

100% ack.
you can find some headerfiles to apis in QSYSINC, but not all and not in 1
headerfile.

i like the xml4pr headers.
thats 1 single file for all C functions in the serviceprogram.

they should at least bundle some important function-headerfiles like you
have with stdio.h or math.h in C.
