an embedded script like lua (see app_lua module) could be the
alternative for anything that is not available as config function. Exec
might not be the most performat option that can be used, but it won't
have any relevant impact if you don't execute any long time taking
application.

Anyhow, I looked at the code and found an easy way to get this working
so, I pushed a patch that makes the cast operator (int) to detect and
convert hex:

You should be able to cherry pick that commit in your branch.

It can be used like:

    $var(x) = "0x10";
    $var(y) = (int)$var(x);
    xlog("hex x = $var(x); dec y = $var(y)\n");

Adding transformations would be another option to be done when time allows.

Cheers,
Daniel
