If you've built clang (http://clang.llvm.org/), you can use a command
like "clang -ccc-host-triple msp430-generic-generic -ccc-clang-archs
msp430 -x c - -o - -S -O" and type in some C code, and it'll spit out
msp430 assembly.  (The -ccc-host-triple and -cc-clang-archs arguments
are magic; besides that, clang takes the same arguments as gcc.)
