I see this patch in trunk and as i understand #994 correctly, extension methods should working know. But i can not get them to work with the compiler from rev 3076.

Attached a simple example project which demonstrates what i want to do.

Your testcase fails because Boo only recognizes extensions when the type declaring them is imported; importing the namespace of that type isn't enough. I've created BOO-1100 to represent this.
