That was not true for Gauntlet 3.x - components that existed in fwtk were
nearly similar except configuration, transparency and partially auth* part. 
The code was formatted a bit differently and there were minor changes but even
variables and function names were the same.

Thing have changed much since that, though. I don't have 5.x/6.x source but it
was said it was almost completely rewritten.
