The table is generated by:

 pango/tools/make-table.sh
 pango/tools/compress-table.pl

The source tables are described in:

 http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2000-August/msg00016.html

And, with further additions in:

 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50633

(See comment from 2001-08-06)

Since the EASTASIAN tables on unicode.org are considered obsolete, it
might be best to switch make-table.sh to be able to read Unihan.txt
in addition. Or, maybe, we should add another script that takes Unihan.txt
and creates tables in the format make-table.sh expects.
