Larry,
Like any other RFC-to-be, draft-ietf-policy-core-schema
has to wait on its normative references.
draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema is still an active "work
in progress" ("expire" dates can be misleading as "in process"
I-Ds don't expire). See the I-D data tracker for current
status.
draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema appears (from the available
I-D data tracker details) to have been approved by the IESG.
So this thread seems moot.

No.
PCLS defines elements of LDAP schema dependent on LDAP
matching rules which, at present, are not specified
in any standard track document. While X.520(93) defined
X.500 corresponding matching rules, it does not define
any LDAP matching rules. As X.500 matching rules have
to be adapted for use in LDAP (as demonstrated in RFC
2252), referencing X.520 is not sufficient.
The PCLS's normative reference to draft-zeilenga-ldap-
user-schema is correct and proper. No action is needed
by the Policy WG.
