@Philippe, thank you for spending the time to find a compiler that works with 
the testcase. I've been operating on RHEL 8 primarily:
gcc version 8.2.1 20180905 (Red Hat 8.2.1-3) (GCC)

Title:
  instruction 'denbcdq' misbehaving

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Instruction 'denbcdq' appears to have no effect.  Test case attached.

  On ppc64le native:
  --
  gcc -g -O -mcpu=power9 bcdcfsq.c test-denbcdq.c -o test-denbcdq
  $ ./test-denbcdq
  0x00000000000000000000000000000000
  0x0000000000000000000000000000000c

  I started looking at the code, but I got confused rather quickly.
  Could be related to endianness? I think denbcdq arrived on the scene
  before little-endian was a big deal.  Maybe something to do with
  utilizing implicit floating-point register pairs...  I don't think the
  right data is getting to helper_denbcdq, which would point back to the
  gen_fprp_ptr uses in dfp-impl.inc.c (GEN_DFP_T_FPR_I32_Rc).  (Maybe?)
