Package: gcc-msp430
Version: 4.6.3~mspgcc-20120406-3
Severity: critical

Moin,

The current interrupt table code definitions in the gcc-msp430 and msp430mcu 
packages will lead to generate tables that go far into a reserved region
of the MSP430 devices in case of the MSP430FR5xxx devices.
Apperantly this region contains the passwords and lock code for device.
Ie once this region is written to and the device reset, access over
JTAG becomes impossible.
See 
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.hardware.texas-instruments.msp430.gcc.user/10623/focus=10627
 for an explenation.

The current gcc-msp/msp430mcu should be either fixed to not overwrite
the reserved regions or refuse to generate code for those devices with
an appropriate error message. Otherwise people will brick there devices
with a supposedly safe procedure.
