1) Better time formatting routines, e.g. DCL access to LIB$CONVERT_DATE_STRING and LIB$FORMAT_DATE_TIME
2) Get info about process permanent files.  Work around:  PPF.MAR
3) DCL access to Supervisor Mode locks.  Work around: Ken Coar's LOCK utility
4) Ability to set local symbols of outer DCL levels to "simulate" returning a value.  Work around: Brian Schenkenberger's TMESIS SYMBOL utility
