      I've spotted an issue importing a 2.2.2 exported collection with 2.3.2 mongoimport.

      I am guessing it is because of a date before unix-epoch. (See Data below and attached files). could reproduce it with a various date before 1970

      Workaround(s):

      • use mongodump / mongorestore (works fine in 2.3.2)
      • use mongoimport v. 2.2.x (tested 2.2.2, 2.2.3.rc0)

      Info: It doesn't matter which mongoexport is used.

      Data as in collection:

      {
	"_id" : ObjectId("4eda7403a232d6a083b3aab3"),
	"description" : "Man repts. past sighting in 1957 near Mt. Baldy.  Witnessed two bright "white and blue" stars pursued by jet fighters.",
	"duration" : "",
	"geoloc" : [
		34.0239015,
		-118.1720157
	],
	"location" : "E. Los Angeles, CA",
	"reported_at" : ISODate("1995-07-25T00:00:00Z"),
	"shape" : " light",
	"sighted_at" : ISODate("1957-06-01T00:00:00Z")
}

      Data as json:

      { "_id" : { "$oid" : "4eda7403a232d6a083b3aab3" }, "description" : "Man repts. past sighting in 1957 near Mt. Baldy.  Witnessed two bright "white and blue" stars pursued by jet fighters.", "duration" : "", "geoloc" : [ 34.0239015, -118.1720157 ], "location" : "E. Los Angeles, CA", "reported_at" : { "$date" : 806630400000 }, "shape" : " light", "sighted_at" : { "$date" : 18446743676528751616 } }
