The only thing I am worried about is people who have saved the
date2num output in pickle files or other array storage formats.
Changing the offset by 1 will break this data.  This argues for
changing the docstring to accurately reflect what the code does,
rather than changing the code to reflect the docstring.

But I could be persuaded otherwise.
