This can't be done yet, mostly because you don't have the system dependent
libraries unless you buy the Software Development Platform.  AT&T would
probably take a dim view of borrowing the libraries and include files from
someone elses system.

I am working on this problem and expect to have a product in a few more
months.  The biggest holdup is testing and documentation.  I have all
the SYSTEM(2) functions coded and am working on documentation.  After all
its also not nice to borrow the documentation either.
