for 1.2.x it's quite easy to add schema definitions.
create a textfile with the following format:

objectclass <name>
     [ requires <attrs> ]
     [ allows <attrs> ]

with <attrs> being a list of attributes (e.g. uid, cn, sn), separated by
',' (without the quotes, of course). (see also slapd.oc.conf for
predefined definitions)

then add a line
include         /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/my.schema.conf (or
whatever your file would be)
and a line
schemacheck on
to your slapd.conf file

see the administrator guide chapter 5.4 for more information:
