Don't think OS-9 has such a call.  "Everyone knows" it's 8K.

ISTR that some commercial OS-9 box (GIMIX?) used 4K segments.  But then, 
everyone writing for that box knew that.  They, like us Coconuts, didn't worry 
about whether their code would run on other platforms.

BTW, I still think that the Coco was the only 6x09 OS-9 box to do graphics.  
ISTR even the Fujitsu dual-6809 system was text-only.  Corrections welcome.
