I *was* a little confused about that.  The reason I put that site
together was to get a grip on all on the information I have been
collecting over the past week, and please remember, the sum total of
my experience with the msp430 is only just a week now.

Going through the Wiki again, I noticed the reference to use gcc3 to
compile the sources.  Does this hold for Uniarch as well?  As the gcc
bundled with later versions of Xcode3 is 4.2.1, a note should be made
to build and then use gcc3 in the OS X build instructions.

Perhaps it might be best to send you a copy of the output in question.

I had guessed it was something like that.

Now, off to figure out the header file situation and the debugging situation!
