I think that would only work if the integer math is the same as decimal number math. Maybe I should ask the developer for help but the last update was almost 10 years ago.
If you could link me to the source, I'd take a look.

NAME

       _encodedecimal64(), _encodedecimal128(), _encodedecimal32() - encode decimal-encoded decimal data

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       There  are  two	standard  bit-encodings  for decimal floating-point data: binary and decimal.  Both encoding provide exactly the same data
       (analogous to big endian and little endian encodings).  The HP-UX decimal floating-point types use the binary encoding.

       The function encodes x as a decimal-encoded 64-bit decimal datum.

       is a version of it takes a argument and returns a result.

       is a version of it takes a argument and returns a result.
