Actually it is pretty easy:
Here is the log of pdbset
[ccp4@roo job_55]$ pdbset xyzin part.pdb

Coordinates will be transformed as follows:
( 0.714610 -0.613092 0.336824 ) ( x ) ( 0.000 )
( 0.633718 0.771281 0.059391 ) ( y ) + ( 0.000 )
( -0.296198 0.171010 0.939693 ) ( z ) ( 0.000 )
....
Of course you still have to worry about the orthogonalisation code used for
the SELFROT search.
polarrfn tells you what is chosen
For triclinic, orthorhombic ext the choice is usually
Z || c* X || a and Y chosen to make an orthogonal set
But for monoclinic it is often set
Z || b* X || a and Y chosen to make an orthogonal set
