They are. read docs in msp430-libc how to build it.

Compilers often drop lines in assembler output.
the command 'msp430-objdump -DS [file]' will give C/assembly output. BUt 
optimization (if enabled) will mess all C lines (especially if the code is 
complicated)
We thought about IARs output, but I had no chance to study TI assembler.
So, TI assembly compatibility does not work.

Well, I'm using gdb built-in simulator or python simulator. Then burn and run...
Under gdb you can do lots of things (breaks, watchs, steps, simulate interrups,
etc.)

I do not know.
