Note that in later 389 releases, the schema was made LDAPv3 compliant.  
The schema attributes attributeTypes, objectClasses, matchingRules, etc. 
are defined by LDAPv3 to be operational attributes.  This means they 
must be specified explicitly in the ldapsearch command line e.g.

ldapsearch -x -h localhost -s sub -b cn=schema -wxxxxxxxx \
     -Dcn=directory\ manager "objectclass-*" \* attributeTypes 
objectClasses ....
