(a) For a ticketing approach, might be better to create tickets on the
sourceforge project instead of emailing everybody with each one.  Though I
don't know if anybody's going to maintain the how-to for the existing mspgcc
infrastructure; my preference is to leave packaging to downstream and just
provide the patches.

(b) Not sure what the last problem was; the failure to find msp430-ar?
Probably you installed binutils in a directory that is not in your PATH.
sudo can contribute to confusion there, since the path it uses is not the
same as the path you've got in your main shell; contrast "msp430-ar -v" with
"sudo msp430-ar -v"

(c) You might be better off using mspgcc4 until we get the two projects back
together.  Run the buildgcc.pl script it comes with.
