Basically (at the moment), kIRG_HSource is a subset of kHKSCS.  They also 
come via different routes.  kIRG_HSource is a listing of those characters 
where the HKSAR submitted source information to the IRG.  So far, all 
these are in HK SCS, but we can't guarantee this will be the case in the 
future.  The latter comes via the HKSAR's official mapping tables.

Er, doesn't MS provide one somewhere?
