# usage: validate somefile.xson somefile.bson
#
# Reads somefile.xson file (XML that describes a Mongo-type document),
# converts it into a Ruby OrderedHash, runs that through the BSON
# serialization code, and writes the BSON bytes to somefile.bson.
#
# This script is used by the mongo-qa project
# (http://github.com/mongodb/mongo-qa).
