I doubt there's any explicit support for it. Position independent code is
mostly irrelevant in embedded systems where there won't be any dynamic
loading. There are applications where one might replace code with overlays,
but those can be generally be handled with fixed addresses. I believe
binutils has support for this, though I haven't used it myself.
If you care to file a tracker problem on mspgcc or mspgcc4, I'll eventually
make sure that, at the least, -fPIC doesn't silently generate non-PIC code.
If you have an application which actually does require position-independent
code, that warrants its own enhancement request.
