I've got another challenge for you folks.  Korean and Chinese (and US) maps show the boundary around Mt Paektu, the sacred volcano-lake differently.  China now runs the line through the lake, KN and KS maps claim the whole lake, and many US (government and private) maps appear to give the whole mountain to CH.  Anyone got a handle on this?  I heard there may have been a treaty in the 1980s between CH and KN, but have no evidence of it.
