No idea what these are:

These are XSP files (the APS.NET host). It's hosted separately
at https://github.com/mono/xsp

GTK stuff. These are hosted elsewhere. No idea where, sorry.

The boo compiler. Hosted elsewhere:

Dependency. You should take them from the official binary installer:

I'd rather suggest to update a local binary installation
and repackage it instead of trying to build the installer
from scratch. That's what I do and it's a really easy
step.
