nope, it's just impossible. if your appl. call dcs_to_fields(...), this 
functions sets alt_dcs = 0, means correct value.... if smpp driver call 
fields_to_dcs(...) then see here:
    /* Non-MWI */
    else {
        /* mode 0 or mode UNDEF */
        if (mode == 0 || mode == SMS_PARAM_UNDEFINED || msg->sms.coding == 
DC_UCS2
            || msg->sms.compress == COMPRESS_ON) {

that means, it's no difference here to call fields_to_dcs(.., -1) or 
fields_to_dcs(..., 0)...
