In LDAP, "Sánchez" and "Sanchez" are not equal per the
caseIgnoreMatch (or caseExactMatch) matching rule.
Hence, (cn=Sanchez) won't match the CN value "Sánchez".

However, in slapd(8), directory string approximate
rule ignores accents and such.  Hence, (cn~=Sanchez)
will match "Sánchez" and vice versa.
