multiple cn values which are just an annoyance when the entry also
contains a gecos attribute. (There are legitimate reasons for the cn
attribute to be multi-valued.)
Would it be possible to optimize away the evaluation of the right-hand
side of :- and :+ based on the value of the left-hand side?
Thanks for pointing this out. I've fixed this and it will be in the next
release.

Bug#592320: nslcd: unnecessary $ expansions cause spurious warnings
Package: nss-pam-ldapd
Version: 0.7.2
Severity: minor
[Seen in version 0.7.2 on Ubuntu lucid, probably also applies to the latest
version since the VCS shows no relevant code changes since then.]
