[Bug 1199878] Re: Regression: seq -s broken

[Stephan Diestelhorst]

Just looking at this some more.  The expected behaviour is (with marked
new lines):

$> seq -s " " 0 7
"0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7\n"

Broken behaviour:
$> seq -s " " 0 7
"0\n1 2 3 4 5 6 7"

Going to bisect upstream.  Seems a silly bug to me.
