Xerox and Apple separately built such tables, which have been cross-checked,
merged, and donated to the Unicode Consortium.  They will soon be updated to
reflect the *final* unified ideograph codes decided by the
Chinese-Japanese-Korean Joint Research Group just this week.  With luck, these
should become blessed as part of the Unicode/10646 international standard by
this summer.

The Unicode Consortium is currently moving to make the tables available for a
nominal handling fee once they have stabilized.
