Oh, really? I must be behind the times. I must confess the last time I
did anything w/ CJK-LaTeX was at least 4 years ago, and at that time it
didn't support UTF-8. Do you happen to know how they do that? Did UTF-8
support get added in TeX itself, or in LaTeX, or is it some kludge in
the CJK macros themselves?
