I was not aware that the key is a varint, although it is clearly written in the 
documentation:

Each key in the streamed message is a varint with the value (field_number << 3) 
| wire_type – in other words, the last three bits of the number store the wire 
type. http://code.google.com/intl/de/apis/protocolbuffers/docs/encoding.html

Thanks for the help.
