     The list here looks pretty extensive:
         http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/convexp?s=WINDOWS
     
     The main page of that site makes the bold claim that "ICU's
     conversion tables are based on charset data collected by IBM over
     the course of many decades, and is the most complete available
     anywhere."

I wasn't previously aware of this library.  But it seems that the 
maintainers have really done their research, and are putting in 
a serious effort. Furthermore,  a little digging suggests that recent
versions of spss use it.   How about we use it too?  It's
another dependency of course ....
