      db.test.drop()
db.test.ensureIndex({num:1},{unique:true})
db.test.insert([{num:0},{num:2},{num:4},{num:6},{num:7},{num:10}])
db.test.update({},{$inc:{num:1}},{multi:true})

      Gives:

      WriteResult({
        "nMatched" : 0,
        "nUpserted" : 0,
        "nModified" : 0,
        "writeError" : {
                "code" : 11000,
                "errmsg" : "E11000 duplicate key error collection: mt.test index: num_1 dup key: { : 7.0 }"
        }
})

      But...

      > db.test.find({},{_id:0})
{ "num" : 1 }
{ "num" : 3 }
{ "num" : 5 }
{ "num" : 6 }
{ "num" : 7 }
{ "num" : 10 }

      3 documents were modified. We would expect "nMatched" and "nModified" to be at least 3.

We would expect "nMatched" and "nModified" to be at least 3.

      If a multi:true update is run such that it fails halfway the resulting nModified / nMatched fields appear to always be set to zero (and the appropriate error given) even if documents have been modified.
