So, just to confirm what you're saying, that EVEN THOUGH the existing schema 
has all the prerequisite objectClass and other object types, and even though 
I'm attempting to use slaptest to convert a single extended .schema, a holdover 
from an earlier version of openldap, to an .ldif in the configuration cn, that 
my test.conf, must have lines that include all the other base schema files as 
well?

Your test LDIF file for converting schema must include all other schema that it 
is dependent upon for it to be able to convert properly.
