Thank you Sergio for sending this note.

The failures are:

 413: listings.at:85     COPY within comment
      listing
 728: run_file.at:340    OUTPUT on INDEXED file to missing directory
      runfile open assign
 783: run_file.at:5417   SEQUENTIAL file with SHARING READ ONLY
      runfile
 799: run_file.at:6579   INDEXED partial keys
      runfile

Congratulations for the first failure - it can only happen if it one of
the listing tests are performed shortly before midnight

Thu Jan  7 23:59:59 2021   in the listing header was not replaced
correctly before the comparision because when it came to replacing the
datetime the new date was
Thu Jan  8 00:00:01 2021

So a "happy false positive" here

:-)

 728: run_file.at:340    OUTPUT on INDEXED file to missing directory
 799: run_file.at:6579   INDEXED partial keys

are related to the VBISAM you're using. 728 is an unexpected io-status
only, so likely no issue, 799 is a feature this version of VBISAM does
not have (we work on an official and big update of VBISAM for this year).
The possibility of VBISAM passing some tests "unexpected" and failing
other is noted in the NEWS entry, so I don't consider these "important
issues" for now.

This leaves 783 which is very likely related to WSL.

Again: thanks for your post, I hope I was able to clear this up a bit.
