There is a new suite of mspgcc patches available as mspgcc 20111205,
available as a bundle at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mspgcc/files/mspgcc/.  All components
have been updated: binutils, gcc, gdb, msp430-libc, msp430mcu.  This
release is intended to be the first of a series of releases.  Expect
there to be new features added, old features removed, and interface
changes over the course of the evolution.

Since this path is likely to introduce temporary instabilities, I have
intentionally prepared these patches to be based on the previous
upstream releases (gcc 4.6.1, binutils 2.21.1a, gdb 7.2a) rather than
the most recent upstream releases, to avoid confusion when the LTS
release finally comes out: it will be based on the latest upstream
releases available at that time.   Since this is a development
release, not a long-term-support (LTS) release, I will not be
preparing standalone patches for reported problems.  Instead, problems
will be fixed in the git repository, and made available in subsequent
development releases.  LTS-20110716 will continue to be supported as a
stable development platform until the next LTS release.

All changes should correspond to an item in the mspgcc tracker at
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=42303&atid=432701.  As I
don't have much time available to document the changes outside of the
source code and the tracker, I've stubbed out a wiki page at
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/mspgcc/index.php?title=Gcc46:Changes
and would ask that, as you run across new stuff that's unexpected, you
update that page.  Edit privileges for the wiki can be obtained by
following the process described on its front page at
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/mspgcc/index.php?title=MSPGCC_Wiki.

Report any bugs you find on the tracker at
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=42303&atid=432701.
