Is this Big5 or GB encoding?  The name GBK suggests the latter.
AFAIK, Chinese GB is codepage 936, Big5 is indeed 950.

AFAIK, 934 is correct.

I don't know about the European locales where there's a controversy 
between 850 and something else, and I don't think you can get the 
definitive answer, since this depends to some extent on the technician 
who burns the characterts into the system ROM.
