That's clearly a bug.

exten => 100,1,Set(temp=${DB(CFIM/200)})
exten => 100,n,GotoIF(${temp} = "" ? novalue)
exten => 100,n,...
exten => 100,n(novalue),...

This is much better, in that you can clearly control exactly what 
happens, especially when you _don't_ want it to jump around because of a 
lack of a value in the DB.
