Thanks Mark !

That may mean IBM AIX 5 support converison between GB18030 and
Unicode, but I don't see this is a system level of support because
there is no locale names for GB18030 in the doc of AIX 5 :

http://publibn.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/admnconc/locale.htm

Zh_CN  Simplified Chinese  People's Republic of China  GBK  
zh_CN  Simplified Chinese  People's Republic of China  IBM-eucCN  
ZH_CN  Chinese  People's Republic of China  UTF-8
