Thanks Tony for the advice. More details on my problem:

I am using gVim on Windows Vista Business which has full (normal)
Chinese support. I set "enc=ucs-2le" and "fenc=utf-8" for conversion
(saving to utf-8 format); I use the "Save As" menu option to do the same
on Notepad. The (ucs-2le) input file was displayed correctly on gVim
with guifont "MingLiU".

To examine the output files, I set "enc=utf-8" and the guifont to
"MingLiU", for both cases. The utf-8 file converted by Notepad was
displayed correctly, while that by gVim wasn't. The hex dumps, for both
output files, were copied from the gVim window after ":%!xxd".
