Not in route-map context.

If a specific route-map statement doesn't match, the route in question
"falls over the end" of the route-map, and that is (IIRC) default *permit*.

So if you have

  route-map foo permit 10
     match something

  route-map foo deny 99

it would permit routes matching "something" and deny all the rest.
Without the "deny 99" part, everything that doesn't get matched by 
"permit 10" will be silently permitted.
