Is WSL stable enough for us to start caring for it?  Last I looked it
was a moving target, with features added and changed all the time.
Trying to chase that could be a gratuitous sink of our resources.

I would agree with you, unfortunately, I tried also to do the same thing in a genuine Ubuntu release running in a vm

and I got the exact same result, which is a bit annoying.

I am at commit 6e788ef0 on emacs-25 branch.

So either I am doing something very stupid or there is a problem on the branch.
