Re: I hate Apache configs ...

I'm going to assume that your jonslib.lib is a typo, but I expect your 
actual problem is that you're trying a ScriptAlias vs a ScriptAliasMatch 
with a bunch of stuff trailing after your first parameter.

Try

ScriptAliasMatch ^/restsrv1(.*)$ /qsys.lib/jons.lib/restsrv1.pgm


Cheers,
