We were doing some calculations based on the pseudo autosomal regions posted
at UCSC
http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway?hgsid=128872263&clade=mammal&org=0&db=0

It seems as if there is an off by one error in the second PAR region
interval:

The Y chromosome in this assembly contains two pseudoautosomal regions
(PARs) at chrY:1-2709520 and chrY:57443438-57772954. These sequences were
taken from the corresponding regions in the X chromosome and are exact
duplications of the X chromosome sequences at chrX:1-2709520 and
chrX:154584237-154913754, respectively.

you can see that oddly the last 2 digits are the same at the end point, but
not in the first point and of course they are not the same length when you
do the arithmetic.  looking at the first ten bp of the region, it looks as
if PAR2 should be

chrY:57443437-57772954
and
chrX:154584237-154913754
