QWCRSVAL is the api to get sysval's. You should be able to find some
examples of that on the web. The only place I've used it is fixing up
timestamps on files in the IFS that the stat() api returns. Looking at
the code it probably came from one of Scott Klement's examples.

WRKSYSVAL to get QUTCOFFSET leaps to mind, but it seems to me like
