Using a custom peripheral as a library

To keep some of my library files in a single location I thought it would be a great idea to use a custom peripheral as a library. I don't want to have any ports or generics, only files. My mpd file simply has

 

## Peripheral Options

OPTION IPTYPE = PERIPHERAL

OPTION IMP_NETLIST = TRUE

OPTION HDL = VHDL

OPTION IP_GROUP = MICROBLAZE:PPC:USER

OPTION DESC = XIL_BUS_CORES

OPTION ARCH_SUPPORT_MAP = (others=DEVELOPMENT)

 

and my .pao file has 3 files.

 

But when I try to add the peripheral into my design, it tries to make it a component.  Is there anyway to treat this peripheral as a library instead of a component?

 

Thanks,
