Details:

Octave 4.0.0: The second plot in the example is bad. The double precision
floating point numbers are overwriting the corresponding dates. No problem in
Octave 3.8.2. Both plots look exactly the same.

%% x ticks and labels
xtick1 = [0, 0.24658, 0.49589, 0.74795, 1];
xtick2 = [0, 0.2465753424657534, 0.4958904109589041, ...
  0.7479452054794521, 1];
xticklabel = {"2013-12-31", "2014-03-31", ...
  "2014-06-30", "2014-09-30", "2014-12-31"};

%% plots
close all;

axis([0 1 0 1]);
hax2 = subplot(2, 1, 2, "tickdir", "out");
axis([0 1 0 1]);
set(hax1, "xtick", xtick1, "xticklabel", xticklabel);
set(hax2, "xtick", xtick2, "xticklabel", xticklabel);
