However, several CJK Compatibility Ideographs are mapped to their own code point values, e.g. "U+FA0C kIRG_USource U+FA0C". The formal syntax of kIRG_USource allows this, but I've found no explanation as to the meaning of such a mapping; there is also no such mapping from a code point to another code point.

This is being changed with the 6.0.0 release. The U-source for all such ideographs has been turned into a UTR #45 index, e.g., the U-source for U+FA0C is now UTC00915.
What it means is that the character is a unifiable variant derived from one of the industrial (and not national) sources used by Unicode during the development of the original URO.
