It depends what the "value" actually is. If its the DER encoding then
you can add that easily enough using the X509_EXTENSION routines. If
however its some ASCII representation of a complex structure and nothing
equivalent already exists then things are much harder. You have to
create custom ASN1 encode and decode routines and optionally functions
to set and print the value.
