ah, the constraints are being added during the creation of the date
element - before your setup() has run and added the sub-elements.
I think to get around that, you'll have to do something like:

---
elements:
  - type: block
    name: justadate
    start_year: 1977
    end_year: 2010
    comment: please choose a correct date

constraints:
  - type: Required
    name: [date_year, date_month, date_day]
