Ehh ... sorry ... but iptables has code demonstrating how create a
firewall rule jumping to an extension target. I'm not particularly
familiar with this code as I have added only 1 - 2 new features to it
but it isn't that complicated, just fairly byzantine. Judgeing from the
code of the version I looked at (1.4.8, used in the product of my
employer), you will need the extension code for any extension you want
to use in addition to the libiptc code.

This means the short answer to your problem statement is: Use iptables.
