Looking at Cyrus code it appears to abort the FETCH immediately if this
situation happens and [UNKNOWN-CTE] is returned as tagged reply.

Now, what to do when NOTIFY's fetch-att list includes BINARY[part] and
it can't be decoded? Send an untagged NO [UNKNOWN-CTE] after the FETCH
reply? What if BINARY[part] is the only requested fetch-att and it can't
be fetched? The server can't send an empty FETCH reply.
