distinguishedName attribute type

[Syntaxes] 3.3.9 (DN) does not say that, and it would seem strange
to me if it did. I expect the above text should refer to DN-valued
attribute types defined in the schema draft itself. The DN-valued
attributes in [Models] do not have 'SUP distinguishedName'.
Though [Syntaxes] 3.3.9 could RECOMMEND that schema specs prefer
"SUP distinguishedName" over "SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.12",
if that's what the above text wants to accomplish.
