Steve,

        The step to copy the gcc/gcc-3.3 files to the gcc-3.2.3 is not clear 
for new 
users.  I would suggest adding an example, and making it explicitly clear 
that all the subdirectories also need to be copied.  Since bash or csh shells 
prompts are shown for the example,  think something like "Assuming that the 
current directory contains the msp430 CVS tree (./gcc), and the GCC source 
files (./gcc-3.2.3), copy all files and subdirectories from the CVS tree to 
the GCC source tree:

$ cp -a gcc/gcc-3.3/* gcc-3.2.3
$ cd gcc-3.2.3
$ ./configure --target=msp430 --prefix=/usr/local/msp430
$ make
$ su
$ make install


        I say this because there's a gcc directory in the gcc-3.2.3 directory, 
and 
it's confusing the first time about exactly where they should go.  And 
there's no clear mention that subdirectories should be copied also.

        Thanks,
        --John
