Ron's comment is very helpful, here's some more factoids:

You can use gr_modtool inside in-tree components. Maybe that'll help you
show how to set up stuff. Otherwise, reading the CMake files should give
you all you need to know -- just follow how the other blocks are added.

Absolutely! I haven't checked your code, but I'm hoping it includes unit
tests? So, please make, make test, make install and see it works in GRC.
If you can provide example flowgraphs in gr-analog/examples, that'll be
great, too.
