Well, but your project *does* need modifications to existing components
as well! (pfinet and boot) And what's more, these changes in turn make
it depend on at least one of the new components. (devnode) So it's
really not possible to split the "new components" part from the
"modifications to existing components".

Of course, this is all just further indication that such a "no new
components" policy makes no sense whatsoever...
