You *may* be able to get away with calling a "cmd_xxx()" function, depending upon how the global optind and optarg values, and the global argcnt and args[] array have been manipulated by your extension command. The better option is to call the worker functions that the cmd_xxx() functions utilize -- if that's possible. In the case of "bt" you could call the exported back_trace() function, similar to the way that the "foreach" command does it in foreach() function.
