First there's a typo in mkreq.c it should be STACK_OF(X509_EXTENSION). 

Have a look at the snippet in apps/req.c around line 880 (where it uses the
variable X509V3_CTX). This uses the newer nconf code. If you want to use a
LHASH directly you can use the older API which ends in _conf instead of
_nconf.
