Oh, I guess I've never done anything w/ release code before. You are right, what you get is a .txt file. I have apparently been misreading that as the TI hex format, which it is not. Anyhow, a somewhat convoluted but workable way would be to objcopy from elf32-msp430 to ihex, and then use ihex2titext to convert from the intel hex format to the TI text format. I believe that is what you're trying to do. Also if you're interested in python code, there is pyBSL and pyJTAG which can read TI-Text format http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/manual/x1607.html#pybsl, which I infer means that they can read it ;).
