Ok, so between me pulling off the back slide for the magazine and then trying to pry the ejector out it got broken free from its years of neglect and the steel is in fact springing again! So as long as the extractor holds the shell and pulls it that far back, the ejector should do its thing.
I am going to leave the original in because if ordering parts has taught me anything the new non-oem parts suck. I made numrich send me two magazines and neither properly holds the shells (the noses point up out of the mag drastically), and neither snaps in place properly without fiddling. Luckily I have one original mag at least.

Chalk up another conversation with the wife:
"Where did you learn that trick/tip/info/bit of esoteric knowledge not at all related to cars?"
"Why, the Subaru forum of course!"
