I found extensions didn't work, but a dependency in the build/plugins
sections did:
e.g checkstyle:checkstyle-patch-1882332:4.3 contains my custom check.

 <build>
   <plugins>
     <plugin>
       <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
       <artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
       <dependencies>
         <dependency>
           <groupId>checkstyle</groupId>
           <artifactId>checkstyle-patch-1882332</artifactId>
           <version>4.3</version>
         </dependency>
       </dependencies>

When you run with -X you can see what file Maven is trying to resolve
for your packagenames.xml.

Double check that your custom check jar contains this file. (Mine was
in the wrong location initiallly)
