GB2312(CN) is absolutely broken; it rejects any valid GB input I could muster
(including EUC-CN, HZ and GBK encodings); I suppose the original Tcl map
is broken as well, since it lists itself as a type D (double-byte) mapping,
but in practice it's almost always a M type encoding, with 0xA1-0xFE as 'lead'
bytes. GB12345 is similarily broken.
Tcl's maps were originally mainly for Tcl/Tk font use - so if GB2312
fonts are normally 16-bit encoded that may be why the broken maps are
present.
I'll see what I can do to regenerate their maps, either from
http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ or other official sources.
Thanks,
