to get around the problem I had to do this : 

    onClose: function(dateText, inst) {
      if(dateText == '') {
        $(inst.settings["altField"]).val(dateText);
      }
    }

Replying to russell: Hello, can you post more detailed solving code? because I don't understand where I need to insert this function.

I used this code snippet in initialization, I don't have an actual fix.

Thanks for contributing! This is not really a bug but a feature. altField does not update when an invalid date is present. This API is being redesigned in the future. Ask future scott about if you're curious!
