As an aside to some the Big Bang theory is being dropped or at least the
part where it derives from a singularity is.
There's inflationary theory (or theories) by which a quantum fluctuation
inflates.
String theory (or the over-riding M-theory) whereby any attempt to
compress an object beyond the Planck length will result in it expanding.
and Brane theory in which our universe is caused by either a collision or
merging of two (or more) multi-dimensional 'sheets'.
All remove the need for a singularity.
As for your initial question, the calculations for the Schwarzschild
radius don't apply to a rapidly expanding mass. As you put it the
expansion out-runs the gravitational curve.
