In T1 at least, according to my reverse engineered understanding,
main.ihex is the base download file for telosb motes, generated
from the main.exe compiler/linker result by msp430-objcopy:

     msp430-objcopy --output-target=ihex build/tmote/main.exe \
        build/tmote/main.ihex

It is further processed by set-mote-id into something like
"main.ihex.out-1" to contain the mote-ID assigned at install time.
The ...-ID file is what is finally downloaded to the telosb
using tmote-bsl or whatever.
