Don't expect the subschema subentry to be complete. There are likely
dangling
references in the subschema.

Do you ask for a fully schema-aware generic LDAP client?
I am writing an LDAP client at the moment ;-) I'd like my client to provide a
description of each object class, attribute, attribute type, and possible
allowed lengths.
Talking about lenghts: A few attributes seem to have rather arbitrary lengths
(e.g. cn=32768, description=1024), while others have none.
It depends on the client and which schema element is actually
missing.
BTW: I will present some aspects regarding missing schema elements in my
LDAPcon talk next week.
Why are you digging into this so deeply?
Start well, improve, until perfect ;-)
Ciao, Michael.
