Hmm, which sysctl version do you have?

I have:

$ sysctl --version
sysctl from procps-ng 4.0.4

I just compiled 3.3.17 and I get:

# /home/idosch/tmp/procps-v3.3.17/sysctl -wq net.ipv4.icmp_errors_extension_mask=0x80
sysctl: setting key "net.ipv4.icmp_errors_extension_mask": Invalid argument
# echo $?
0

Which can explain the failure.

Please let me know if that's the issue and if you want me to replace
this with:

echo 0x80 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_errors_extension_mask
