While I was working on this, it came to my attention that a miniPCIe port actually has some reserved pins to be used as another PCIe lane. So it should be possible to get a 2x port from just one miniPCIe port.
Please read this before reading the rest of my post.
Also read the following PDF:

Now that you're up to speed on things, here is what I have been able to find with a DMM:

The picture shows which pins I found were connected to GND.
There is a resistance between pins 49 and 47. There is no connection between pins 41 and 39. There is no connection between pins 33 and 31. There is a resistance between pins 25 and 23.
Next I will check the voltage between pins 49&47, pins 41&39, pins 33&31 and also pins 25&23 while my notebook is on.
