In particular, look at where it loads schema.ldif, and replace that with
the output of your routines. 

ie, replace:
    setup_add_ldif(samdb, setup_path("schema.ldif"), 
                       {"SCHEMADN": names.schemadn})

with:
    data = read_ms_schema(setup_path("ad-schema/attrs.ldif",
"ad-schema/classses.ldif"))
    data = substitute_var(data, subst_vars)
    check_all_substituted(data)
    ldb.add_ldif(data)
