I don't know how Spring does this, but I know Pico allows you to register components with any Object as the key... This can be the interface that it implements, if there's only one, or any String, for multiple instances. It sounds like Spring does the same?
You don't have to use components.xml, since that's specific to the IoC implementation in Xwork. Integrations with other IoC frameworks will either need to use the framework's built-in dependency resolution (I think maybe NanoContainer has some XML configuration stuff, don't know about Spring) or build something on top of it (which could use components.xml, I suppose).
