It's unclear to me how you actually build a component, I tried things along the lines of

➜  asterius git:(345c46a) nix build -f default.nix asterius.components.library
error: attribute 'asterius' in selection path 'asterius.components.library' not found

This is very much work in progress.

I have pushed the latest changes and you can try it out with:

nix-build -A nix-tools._raw.asterius-boot

At this point it will fail because the boot library source is for ghc HEAD and the nix build is being done with ghc 8.6. I am going to start try to replace this with patches. Most likely we will need one set of patches for ghc 8.6 boot libs and one for ghc HEAD.
