After thinking about it some more (bigdec (/ 1 3)) should be equivalent to (/ 1M 3) which actually throws the ArithmeticException, so this would do away with the need for decimalValueSafe, and bigdec should simply perform a division on a ratio.
I have uploaded a second diff [1] that has these simplifications.
