The iconv in the latest glibc has aliases of CP936 -> GBK (an extension
for GB2312) and CP950 -> BIG5. But I don't know about other libiconv.
So it is still better to have the fallback mechanism for the sake of
older glibc and libiconv's. 

Since the CP950, CP936 are already used for \fcharset before and
have Chinese shown properly, I assumed the fallback is already
called somewhere in RTF importer. If not, it is safer to add it.
