This is what the as.integer(...) is handling. 'x' will contain the actual
position of each value in 'y'.

It's like calling seq(start, end) on each range in the IRanges and
concatenating the result.
It could be implemented as:
do.call("c", lapply(seq_along(chr1), function(i) seq(start(chr1)[i],
end(chr1)[i])))
But it's actually implemented in compiled code and is very fast.
