Here is a program I wrote when playing (uh... testing) the 
proc2_$set_priority system call.

#include <apollo/base.h>
#include <apollo/proc2.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void proc2_$set_priority(
        uid_$t          &puid,
        unsigned short  &lpri,
        unsigned short  &hpri,
        status_$t       *sts);

int main(argc, argv, envp)
int argc;
char **argv, **envp;
{
    uid_$t        p2_uid;
    status_$t     status;
    unsigned short hpriority = 1; /* higher limit process priority */
    unsigned short lpriority = 5; /* lower limit of process priority */

    proc2_$who_am_i(&p2_uid);

    proc2_$set_priority(p2_uid,lpriority,hpriority,&status);

    (void) getchar();
}
