Is anybody aware of a tool that will take as input all N different
schemas generated and create from them a single schema that is the
"unification" (for a lack of better word) of all of them -- in other
words defines the type of all XML document instances.

I suspect it is easier to produce a tool that takes N instances and produces a single schema that describes them all.

When I wrote my DTD generator (still available at http://saxon.sourceforge.net/dtdgen.html) I never got round to productising the ability to take multiple input files, but I did successfully use it that way simply by putting in a filter that concatenated the files (with a wrapper element) before processing.
