That looks right.  I've done that for other targets, but I've
never tried it for MSP430.

Bummer. :)

It sure looks like it is.

I compiled and incrementally linked the following two files:

---------file1.c---------------
extern int i;

int foo(void)
{
  return i+1;
}
------------------------------

---------file2.c---------------
extern int foo(void);

int i;

int bar(void)
{
  return i + foo();
}
------------------------------

It worked fine using gcc for IA32, ARM, H8, and AVR.

But it fails for MSP430:

  $ msp430-ld -r -o foo.o file1.o file2.o
  file1.o: In function foo':file1.c:(.text+0x6): undefined reference to i'
  file2.o: In function bar':file2.c:(.text+0xa): undefined reference to i'

Like you said, it's only a problem for uninitialized variables.
If I add an initializer to the declaration of "i", then it's
OK.
