Also

seq -w 1000000000 output  as 9.9e+008  NOT as 1000000000

I don't observe either problem with coreutils8.24 built for Ubuntu 12.04 x86. For example:

$ src/seq -w 999999990 1000000000
0999999990
0999999991
0999999992
0999999993
0999999994
0999999995
0999999996
0999999997
0999999998
0999999999
1000000000

Perhaps you're using an older coreutils release? If so, you might try upgrading.
