You've got the right approach. I've got a similar library installed,
and it works. (Though I performed all the black magic several months
ago and, of course, have forgotten the most critical bits.)

Could you send me/us the actual error message? You updated the
libraries/extensions/Makefile.am to include your new directory, right?
Does the 'build-classes' target work if you invoke that directly?
(Just cd into your object tree libraries/extensions/new/ and run 'make
build-classes'.)
