Weird issue when iterating through dates

Following up on this, should I report a bug? can you drive me through
the process?

Cheers,
Luca

Just a quick question: what's the difference between  `[.Date` and
`[[.Date`?
Is it supposed to be the method for accessing the value right?

For Dates and atomic vectors in general they are the same, but ...

Even for atomic vectors with names they are not quite the same

    > c(One=1, Two=2)[[2]]

    [1] 2

    > c(One=1, Two=2)[2]

    Two
      2
(and [[ will only return 1 item, unlike [).

For Dates and atomic vectors in general they are the same, but in
general they are two different operators that behave differently on
some data types. E.g. on lists [ selects a sub-list and [[ selects a
single element.
