The file gb2312.enc at "/site/5.7.2/Encode/" is a GB2312 encoding used
by Perl itself. I guess that it is equivalent but not the same as an
encoding used by XML-Parser.
XML-Parser seems to use its own format encodings , of which there is
not one for GB2312. It uses the module XML-Encoding to create the
encodings but I can't find where that module would get a suitable
source for GB2312.

Michel Rodriguez, who reads this list, has written a couple of articles
about XML-Parser and encodings,
http://standards.ieee.org/resources/spasystem/twig/encoding/encoding.html

and
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/04/26/encodings/index.html

he might be able to explain how to create a GB2312 encoding for XML-Parser.

As you point out in your response to another reply, converting to UTF-8
or 16, processing that and then converting back might work.
