Logged issue VIA https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/ as :

Inbuilt KORN Arithmetic & Test functions broken under Windows Subsystem for Linux #4244

The bigger issue here is the power that M$ is waiving with the WSL ports of Linux. They are modifying the runtime results of critical components of Linux, which either by unintelligent design or mistake, leads to serious unexpected results, confusing the end users and pissing off the developers and wasting their time !

It would make for an interesting legal case against M$ by all the Linux Developers for breaching the copyrights of their code and hacking their code by modifying the runtime environments to produce irregular results.
