I think someone simply neglected to install the "System/38 Environment" support, a free optional component of OS/400. Installing this installs the QSYS38 library that has many System/38 compatible commands, like RPLLIBL. (It is option 6 in V5R3. Option 5 is the System/36 environment support.)
I asked around and found that the software install was done by IBM. Why they neglected to install it I don't know. Not a huge deal. We ended changing about 100 CLP38 programs and recompiling some amount of DDS. I'm totally fine with having moved on.
I wonder why IBM didn't install it? I would have thought this is part of the default install.
Of course, it probably is about time you converted this old CLP38 stuff over to "native" OS/400 CLP, anyway, no?
It certainly was time and I don't think anyone is bothered that we had to make the changes.

It's not the software that's free; it's you.
