I'm getting the same behavior here in 10.0. It seems a more careful
reading of the manual page (man head) is needed. Under -n it says that
if you negate the # of lines you get all but the last # of lines in the
file, rather than the last # lines of the file. You probably then want
to use 'head' for the first 17 lines and 'tail' for the last 17.
