It appears that WRS only implements sysIntEnable() and 
sysIntDisable() on VME bus systems.

On PC systems sysIntEnablePIC (intLevel) is used to enable
interrupts in the Programmable Interrupt Controller (PIC) chip.
Since this routine assumes ISA style interrupt routing on the mother
board we can only hope that WRS is forthcoming with improved
interrupt support for PCI bus systems which will presumably allow
for more sophisticated interrupt vector assignment to PCI devices
on the motherboard.
