I think that it should be a syntax error, but unfortunately the
section-binary rule in RFC 3516 is:
   section-binary =   "[" [section-part] "]"
instead of:
   section-binary =   "[" section-part "]"

I consider this to be a bug in RFC 3516.  If it intended to make BINARY[]
valid, it should have used the RFC 3501 "section" rule.
