Yes, the only reason I was still fooling with this was that it was a
bit problematic having the language set system-wide. Setting the
variables just prior to launching emacs ought to be fine – anyway, now
that I've got a better understand of how all this works, I'm sure it
will be easy to find an appropriate solution. (And yes, it was (load-
library "subst-gb2312"))
Thank you both for the help!
