BUG: seems that subtracting a YearBegin offset from an index loses the months/days (original) (raw)

related is #4637 (on freq for WeekDay)

This might be expected, e.g. it conforms the values. or is this a bug?

In [48]: index = date_range('20140101 00:15:00',freq='D',periods=10)

In [44]: df.index.values
