Looking up those Unicode characters in the Unihan database at
http://www.unicode.org/cgi-bin/GetUnihanData.pl?codepoint=92B9&useutf8=true
doesn't give any mapping to the Big5 encoding. At the bottom, however,
there is a mapping to "kHKSCS", which matches the mapping you listed.
Looking at the wikipedia page for Big5, it seems that those characters
belong to Microsoft's ETEN extension. The page also claims that "The
ETen extension became part of the current Big5 standard through
popularity." Is that true? Do we support all the other characters in the
ETEN extension?
Is there some authoritative source for the Big5 encoding, to look these
things up?
