      When running with type=debug, new bsondump will print an object with a Min Key as 

      --- new object ---
	size : 40
		_id
			type:    7 size: 17
		type
			type:    2 size: 14
		ex
			type:  255 size: 4

      However, c++ bsondump prints 

      --- new object ---
	 size : 40
		 _id
			 type:  7 size: 17
		 type
			 type:  2 size: 14
		 ex
			 type: -1 size: 4

      We should probably go with -1, for consistency with http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/query/type/
