I've reviewed the Microsoft's relative rules for its locales codes, i.e., List of Locale ID (LCID) Values as Assigned by Microsoft, from the following url:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0h88fahh.aspx

>From the above rules, we can find that the following locales codes and its corresponding short strings and other informations:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Locale Description       Short String   Hex Value   Decimal Value  Locale Description   Short String  Hex Value   Decimal Value
 
Chinese - China          zh-cn           0x0804         2052           Serbian - Latin 			 sr-sp     	    0x081A      		 2074
 
Chinese - Hong Kong SAR 	zh-hk   0x0C04     3076          Setsuana             		      tn                 0x0432         	 1074

>From the above rules established by Microsfot, we can say that the most easiest way is to rename the Perltk-zh into Perltk_zh-cn for  simplified chinese and Perltk_zh-tw for traditional chinese.   If we do it like this way, perhaps there should be some changes in the original perl script that judge these two files for using them correctly, but it should be also easy due to the corresponding code value (zh-cn and  zh-tw) have been stored in the OS's registry.
