The JIS X 0213 standard includes a complete mapping to Unicode. You can
(could?) find it online:

    JIS X 0213:2004 is available online: go to http://www.jisc.go.jp/;
    click on the blue button labeled “JIS” in the Search section; enter
    “JIS X 0213” in the third input box; click on the attached button;
    select JIS X 0213 in the resulting list. The first PDF is about the
    changes in :2004, the others are actually :2000. (By the way, JIS X
    0208:1997 and JIS X 0212:1990 are also available at the same location.)

(if somebody tries this and the intructions are no longer valid, please
let me know).

Unfortunately, I am not aware of any official, machine readable file.

The problem is for somebody to create a machine readable version.
Otherwise, I am all for it!

Eric.
