Cisco Extended ACLs with SNMP

Just ran across this today when working on a 7609. It seems that when inputting a snmp-server community string I can only use a standard ACL and not extended. Is this a bug? Is there a workaround? Thanks all!
 
An extended ACL isn't needed. So no reason to have one. You're just telling the device what hosts can send SNMP commands to it.

Correct, but you can use name-based ACLs above a certain minor IOS revision -- 12.3(16) rings a bell but... don't quote me on that. :S

You can also define views based on ACLs if you need to secure certain parts of the tree.

Why do you need extended-ACL on a community string?
