Please continue to file bugs!  Even better, open a PR with a fix and a
testcase :-)

Not yet, but there is work underway to do this.  See
https://github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-foundation/pull/1286 which
adds an Xcode project to enable just that.  The goal is to get this
into CI so that we automatically run the SCLF testsuite against both
implementations.

That would be fantastic, we always need more tests.  We cannot build
confidence in the SCLF implementation without a robust testsuite that
passes against both implementations (thinks Java TCK...)
