I've just committed a comment in slapd-ldap(5) and slapd-meta(5) to 
indicate schema requirements.  I'm also working at a patch to 
slapo-pcache(5) that prevents caching of queries that could not be 
answered locally because of schema issues.  I insist that missing schema 
info is a misconfiguration, as OpenLDAP's slapd needs schema consistent 
data to deal with.
