In the following special case, seq fails to give the right answer
(which is  0 )

> seq(0,0,1)
Error in if (dd < sqrt(.Machine$double.eps)) return(from) : 
	missing value where logical needed

For any other equal  from  and  to , it works:

> seq(1,1,1)
[1] 1

The error occurs in the statement

            dd <- abs(del)/max(abs(to), abs(from))

of  seq.default  -- for obvious reasons. 
This is certainly easy to debug...

Thank you for your efforts.
