Clearly slapd functions just fine when nis.schema is not present, even though gidNumber is hard coded in. It's hard coded in for non-NIS functions. Unless you have objects in your tree *using* other elements of the nis.schema, it's fine to remove. Built-in items are *always* present in slapd. Removing a schema that doesn't actually define it (such as nis.schema) then has no effect if you're not using it.
