Er, utf-8 converts the charset of text.  For instance, the
following line is displayed with all the Japanese letters in
my Emacs (`current-language-environment' is "Japanese"):

(split-char ?我) => (japanese-jisx0208 50 102)
(split-char ?建) => (japanese-jisx0208 55 122)

You get different results?

It suggests that it will probably be meaningless to examine the
Chinese text that was encoded by utf-8 once.  So, I think what
we need is the original message.

The gbk text that I made using Emacs Unicode-2 is in the next
page.  It looks fine in Unicode-2, but is displayed with all
boxes in Emacs 23.0.50. ;-)
