      Some shell helpers throw when a server error is encountered (eg find, group, mapReduce). The aggregate shell helper does not, instead returning a document with ok:0.

      Test

      t = db.t;
t.drop();

// Invalid matcher syntax.
printjson( t.aggregate( { $match:{ a:{ $mod:[ 0 /* invalid */, 0 ] } } } ) );

      Result

      { "errmsg" : "exception: mod can't be 0", "code" : 10073, "ok" : 0 }
