What you said rekindled a fading remembrance of what I would call a software reuse entrepreneur who actually exhibited at TRI-Ada '92. The company, called Osiris Industries, was small but they offered the source to a series of generics that included all the Booch components plus some extra functionally capable goodies. I'm sure they wouldn't mind this mention, as I said, they're small and hungry (and the koozies they handed out are great!).
