Any chance to have tinyos devs pushing this patch to upstream binutils ? 
that would be very convenient for everybody ...
there have been a discussion on binutils-dev recently

For gentoo users the patch is included in default gentoo binutils for msp430 
version "cross-msp430/binutils-2.16.1-r3", it's provided by gentoo crossdev, 
(see http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Cross_Compile)
I would recommend using my gentoo overlay here :
https://naurel.org/svn/tinyos-2-overlay
It includes a modified crossdev  which should install a proper msp430-gcc and 
msp430-libc, it also includes ebuilds for tinyos-1.x and 2.x ...
Feedback always welcome ...
Cheers
