I have tried this, and there are still issues.

First of all, debian-reference as currently in sid (is there a public
repository somewhere?) needs to depend (at least) on latex-cjk-chinese
and latex-cjk-chinese-arphic-bkai00mp.

If I install these packages, reference.zh-tw.pdf still fails.  The first
error is:

! Improper alphabetic constant.

A one-character control sequence belongs after a ` mark.
So I'm essentially inserting \0 here.

This looks like an encoding problem?
