Hi, sorry nobody's got back to you about this before now. It seems that
the choice of gb2312 isn't due to it being detected as Chinese text, but
just that that is the first encoding Emacs finds that can encode the
buffer correctly.

There's some more discussion of this here:

I'm going to close this bug report, but please reopen it if you're
unhappy.
