I'd suggest a slightly different wording:

  The processing of extensions depends on whether support for those
  extensions is claimed for a given YANG parser or the tool set in
  which it is embedded.  An unsupported extension, appearing in a
  YANG module as an unknown-statement (see Section 14) MAY be
  ignored in its entirety.  Any supported extension MUST be processed
  in accordance with the specification governing that extension.
