      create an index with a type that is only expressed in extended json, then dump it with mongodump.

      db.test.createIndex({x: NumberLong(1)})

      Then try to restore it with mongorestore, and it will try to create the index spec with literally

      {"$numberLong":1}

      as the direction (which is invalid) and fail.
