en_US.UTF-8 in Solaris below includes ksc5601.1992-3 (JOHAB) and
you wrote that it's virtually identical to the one in X.Org's
X11R6.6.x. Does it mean that JOHAB (ksc5601.1992-3) support has been added
to X11R6.6.x ?

My understaning is that Solaris has ksc5601.1992-3 in
aa_BB.UTF-8 because ksc5601.1987-0 doesn't cover the full set of Hangul
syllables in ISO 10646, right?
When I submitted the font encoding file for ksc5601.1992-3 to include
in XF86, Juliusz and I talked briefly about including ksc5601.1992-3
support (beyond just being able to present truetype fonts as in
ksc5601.1992-3 font encoding with freetype moudle), but we concluded (or
rather, he suggested) that we don't have to because iso10646-1 will do
the job, instead. However, if we follow Owen's suggestion quoted below,
I think we'd better have ksc5601.1992-3 support in XF86 as well.

Anyway, I have the same reservation as Owen about a long
list of fontsets. Can we go on adding 'legacy/traditional' font encodings
to aa_BB.utf-8 this way? The list may get longer... JIS X 0213-p[1-2],
CNS 10xxx-p[1-7], 'planes' for GB 18030 support immediately come to my
mind as missing in en_US.UTF-8 on Solaris..
Another BTW, is there any good documentation/tutorial to help me
understand/decipher XLC_LOCALE file format (or compose a new one)?
Is reading the source code the only way?
Thank you,
