I think that missing schema files should lead to a failed upgrade.

If we'd allow the upgrade to succeed, the resulting configuration would be wrong and slapd won't start anyway. Commenting out the missing schema is not a good option as it would break the client applications (and slapd won't probably start as it doesn't know about some parts of the ldap objects stored in the database).

However this use case should be be improved when we're migrating to the cn=config backend.
