I am doing:

  page.should have_xpath("//img[contains(@class, 'foobar')]", :count => 
0)

but cucumber tells me:

expected xpath "//img[contains(@class, 'foobar')]" to return something
(RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError)


...  Shouldn't this be returning true/false ?

have_xpath is a Capybara matcher that defines its own failure message:

"have_[xpath]" is a custom matcher in Capybara. So, the answer would be 
no.
