is Jcode part of the standard Perl distribution? Or, can it be found
in the package collection?

I've been a little confused about what exactly JIS is. Is ISO-2022-JP 
current JIS? Is Unicode not? In Korea, we have two standards (KS), one is 
based on EUC and the other on Unicode (in fact, there's another standard
but nobody is using it nowadays).

UTF-16 won't be supported right now, since it seriously breaks 
compatibility with many of existing apps. It's just for testing purpose.
