DKIOCCDREADTOC returning BCD numbers?

One of my users reported a bug when accessing some of his CDs from an external CD drive. After some debugging, it appears to me that the CDTOC returned from the external drive contains BCD-encoded numbers. My code which reads the TOC looks like:

	dk_cd_read_toc_t cd_read_toc;
	uint8_t buffer [2048];

	bzero(&cd_read_toc, sizeof(cd_read_toc));
	bzero(buffer, sizeof(buffer));
	
	cd_read_toc.format = kCDTOCFormatTOC;
	cd_read_toc.buffer = buffer;
	cd_read_toc.bufferLength = sizeof(buffer);
	
	result = ioctl([self fileDescriptor], DKIOCCDREADTOC, &cd_read_toc);

I inserted some debugging statements to print out the result. For the same disc, here is what the user saw in each of his drives:

So indeed it appears that his external Plextor drive is returning a CDTOC with BCD-encoded numbers, because

Internal last track: 26 (which is correct) External last track: 38, 0010 0110 in binary, when interpreted as BCD equals 26 in decimal

Internal LBA for track 1: 33 (correct) External LBA for track 1: 51, 0011 0011 in binary, when interpreted as BCD equals 33

There is a comment in IOCDTypes.h which says:

/*
* Table Of Contents
*
* All CDTOC fields passed across I/O Kit APIs are guaranteed to be
* binary-encoded numbers (no BCD-encoded numbers are ever passed).
*/

so I assumed I didn't have to convert from BCD. Have I made an error in my code or should this not be happening?

Thanks,
Stephen
