Yes.
I had the same problem with MSP430F24x0. It worked fine with
IAR and CC debuggers, but was not supported by gdb-proxy either
under Linux or under Windows (not even when using the .dll
files taken from the IAR or CC directories).
There was no solution.
I offered to help troubleshoot/fix the problem, but offers went
unacknowledged. I even went so far as to offer to sign an NDA.
Again, ignored.
TI's customer support is horrible, and the MSP430 JTAG
implementation sucks (both the HW in the part and the software
tools support). The MSP430 would be a great part if it wasn't
so painful to use.
