Attached patch fixes a couple of issues with the script:

Manually add relevant objectClass attribute to attributes
(attributeSchema) and classes (classSchema) to the output.
(The ADA/ADSC docs do not contain this attribute).

Translate oMObjectClass attribute contents to binary octet string.

Fix bug when reading multivalued attributes from a LDIF file.

It still does not provision, however, now I'm seeing this error during
make test:

dsdb/schema/schema_init.c:697: 'gecos': unable to map attributeID
1.3.6.1.1.1.1.2: WERR_DS_NO_MSDS_INTID
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./setup/provision", line 183, in <module>

  File "bin/python/samba/provision.py", line 1025, in provision
    ldap_backend_type=ldap_backend_type)

    misc.dsdb_attach_schema_from_ldif_file(self, pf, df)
RuntimeError: (8596, 'WERR_DS_NO_MSDS_INTID')

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with prefixMap.txt contents. MS-ADA3
describes the attribute as "internal use only".
FWIW, 'gecos' is a new attribute in the generated schema.ldif.
