Well, sort of.  Use SYS$LIBRARY instead, though.  SYS$LIBRARY is a search
list composed of SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSLIB] and SYS$COMMON:[SYSLIB] (that's were
the "sort of" comes in).  SYS$COMMON is a logical that points to a set of
directories common to all satellite nodes in a cluster with a common system
disk.  SYS$SYSROOT is a logical that points to a set of directories that
are specific to each satellite node in a cluster with a common system disk.
 
Also, the command: HELP CC RUN-TIME_FUNCTIONS (or just HELP CC RUN) can be
used to locate functions.  This will also tell you the header file that's
required.
