It has to be SystemDefault.properties (no 's' on Default).  But if it's
working with Qshell, you probably have the right name.

I am having trouble getting the file created even with qsh now; I must be
missing some step.  

Using Google, I found this Software Technical Document that describes the
difference between QSH and command-line calls:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/0/8303c4982f8a8f9086256e98006fbb5f?
OpenDocument. 
It looks like I was involved in writing this, since the examples use my
directory, but I confess I forgot about this other environment variable
QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT.  This shows how to call an RPG program as a Qshell
command.

In the Info Center, I found this page
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/ic2924/index.htm?info/
rzahz/cmdcl.htm. 
It implies that if you call the program as a Qshell command, you can get the
file to append by specifying FILEAPPEND=pathname for the QIBM_QSH_CMD_OUTPUT
environment variable.  I don't know if there's something similar for
QIBM_USE_DESCRIPTOR_STDIO.
