gEDA-user: devices with different slots? How?

Hello, I am trying to create devices with different slots. For example, I'd like to have a 7400 consist of four NAND slots and one POWER slot (pins 7+14). Similarly, I'd like to split (for example) a 68332 into its modules (POWER, CLOCK, TPU, QSPI, whatever). In the past, we have used such
