BUG: off-by-one when doing network test repeats

Imagine num_runs is two, then runs will take on the values [0, 1] and runs <
num_uns will always be False. Hence any genuine Exception the code might raise
will be silently ignored and just printed.
BUG/TST: fix (and skip) tests that have been failing unnoticed all along

The test is unstable and although this makes it work properly, no one knows how
long. Hence it was decided to skip this guy until further notice.

Skip test_fred_nan and test_fred_parts, both of which have been failing silently for a while

BUG: Constrain date parsing from strings a little bit more #4601

Currently dateutil will parse almost any string into a datetime.  This
change adds a filter in front of dateutil that will prevent it from
parsing certain strings that don't look like datetimes:

1) Strings that parse to float values that are less than 1000
2) Certain special one character strings (this was already in there,
   this just moves that code)

Additionally, this filters out datetimes that are out of range for the
datetime64[ns] type.  Currently any out-of-range datetimes will just
overflow and be mapped to some random time within the bounds of
datetime64[ns].
