Wrong index bounds when using "hint"

      I have the following two indexes:

      {Groups: 1, Duplicate: 1, NotFound: 1, DontShow: 1, TSCreated: 1, FacebookShares: -1}, {name: 'DateGroupIndex-FacebookShares'}
{Groups: 1, Duplicate: 1, NotFound: 1, DontShow: 1, TSCreated: 1, TwitterShares: -1}, {name: 'DateGroupIndex-TwitterShares'}

      A) When I run the following query:

      .find({Groups:1,Duplicate:0,NotFound:0,DontShow:0,TSCreated:{$lt:1405695600,$gt:1405609200}}).hint("DateGroupIndex-FacebookShares").limit(10).sort({FacebookShares: -1}).explain()

"cursor" : "BtreeCursor DateGroupIndex-FacebookShares"
...
"indexBounds": {
...
"TSCreated" : [
		[
				-Infinity,
				1405695600
		]
],
...}

      B) And when I run same query without calling "hint", the index bounds for TSCreated is properly computed, although it's not the proper index which is picked up:

      "cursor" : "BtreeCursor DateBasicIndex-TwitterShares"
...
"indexBounds": {
...
"TSCreated" : [
		[
				1405609200,
				1405695600
		]
],
...}

      It seems like than when using a range matching {$gt: XX, $lt YY} and forcing an index with "hint", the parser can properly parse the lower bound value. I've tried switching $gt and $lt places, it's all the same.
