Anybody wishing to track development versions of mspgcc should now pull from
the repositories.  Development is now based on the branch-point where 4.6.x
forked from trunk.  This resulted in new branches to be used to track
development: follow "master" on all repositories (this is new for binutils
and gcc; the uniarch/* hierarchy is no longer active).  The repository.txt
file in the maint branch on each repository has been updated with the new
development practices.

Development and bug resolution will proceed on these branches.  If you
report a bug and need it fixed in the 4.5.3 long-term support version, please
indicate that in your report.

Since this is all new stuff with no road time, patches have not been added
to the mspgcc repository and there is no mspgcc release corresponding to
this.  Note that this development is based on a gcc branch point, not an
upstream release.  Do not distribute packages from these development
branches.  A 4.6.1-based mspgcc will be released as a bundle when things
seem stable.

NOTE: These updates include changes to binutils that clean up various linker
problems.  If you used to have problems with Contiki or other systems that
use archives, rather than building monolithic executables as with TinyOS,
please see if your problems have been resolved.  If not, or if there are new
ones, please open a ticket at on the tracker at
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=42303&atid=432701
