According to another HTC engineer in HTC Care center in Taiwan, the HTC Victor’s hardware does support A-GPS, but was disabled by the firmware released in Taiwan. Perhaps a quick fix of new firmware by the clever folks at xda-developer will get the A-GPS activated on HTC Victor?

Note that the T-Mobile Compact IV is actually the HTC Victor, anyone can confirm if it does have A-GPS?
