no Xsim input for gb18030, 11i

[Steven Buschman_3]

We can't input fron 'xsim' with locale gb18030.
We can input from xsim with other locales.
The system was setup last year, gb18030 is working fine otherwise.
I found a notes for the recent GOLDQPK11i showing the following patches were needed for this exact issue, but they have not helped.

In all cases where there were newer patches I chose the HP recommended patches, that did not help. In 4 of them there was the above, a newer recommended, and a newest. I then installed the newest for those 4, still no help.
What I have regarding this is now: -
27160 -
29495 (previously 29029, substituted 25452) -
26453 -
26454 -
29903 (previously 28134, substituted 26456) -
25083 -
28691 (substituted 25201) -
25784 -
30011 ( req'd for 25789, substituted 25788) -
29740 (previously 27873, substituted 25789) -
29371 (previously 28875, substituted 25881) -

Any ideas are appreciated, thanks in advance.
