As an example, will sending 12.345 (12345e-3) for a DECIMAL(34,2) be rejected with an
incorrect scale

subtypes, and I assume this to also mean the blr_dec_fixed is removed,
including the need to send the scale separately in the request BLR.
As a result, SQL_DEC34 will represent:

Because SQL_DEC* values according to IEEE are, actually,
floating-point values, they must be treated the same way as
SQL_FLOAT and SQL_DOUBLE, IMHO.
I.e. like numerics based on SQL_DOUBLE in d
