Also, looking at BCD_DIG_BYTE():

#if defined(HOST_WORDS_BIGENDIAN)
#define BCD_DIG_BYTE(n) (15 - (n/2))
#else
#define BCD_DIG_BYTE(n) (n/2)
#endif

Oops. n is under-parenthesized, and will cause invalid expansions for
some expressions.  Let's fix that as well.

Yes - the compiler is complaining that 'i * 2' can only be non-zero if
'i' was non-zero (given that the code occurs in a loop for i between 0
and 16), so it is just as easy to write 'i ? ...' instead of the weirder
'(i * 2) ? ...'.
