component_bits is part of the Software Construction Toolkit:

This doesn't look like a part of standard toolkit. As per my understanding the 
path defined for the 'site_scons' directory is correct and the 'main.scons' is 
actually looking for the file which holds 'components_bit', it should be 
present under 'site_tools'.

This is a serious error, and there has to some resolution.
