Does a filter like (!(cn=bob)) match an entry which does not contain any cn
values?  Or maybe more precisely, does the filter (cn=bob) evaluate to
FALSE or UNDEFINED for an entry with no cn value?

According to the X.500:2000 spec, it evaluates to undefined, hence false. Many (most?) LDAP servers evaluate it to true.
