An easier way is to look at the $PRDEF module in STARLET.MLB. The following
is from that file:
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP780	1
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP750	2
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP730	3
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP790	4
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP8SS	5
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP8NN	6
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYPUV1	7
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYPUV2	8
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYP410	8
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYPMAX	10
$EQU	PR$_SID_TYPUV	8
$EQU	PR$_XSID_UV_UV	0
$EQU	PR$_XSID_UV_UV2	1
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N8800	0
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N8700	1
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N2	2
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N3	3
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N4	4
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N5	5
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N8550	6
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N8500	7
$EQU	PR$_XSID_N8NNN	-1

There is an undocumented argument to $GETSYI for the XID information. See
SYS$UPDATE:VMSUPDATE for an example of the call to get XSID info.
