Thank you Humberto,
I am not, as of yet, a Linux user, but I had already been through
that document. It was helpful, but there is an underlying assumption
to most of the documentation out there that the user understands the
Linux file structure and so on. Obviously, in the case of the
tutorial you suggested that would be the case, but this is true for
the windows directions as well.
A case in point is the 'good build practises' found at the msp430-gcc
source forge link. I stll have no idea what it was I was doing wrong
when I tried to build the msp430-gcc from scratch. I was using the
latest binutiles code and that might have been the issue.
The good news is that I figured out what was needed to be done to get
the binary files for the windows version of msp43-gcc to work with
cygwin and elcipse. It turned out to be as simple as installing the
files directly into C:\cygwin\usr\local and deleting the cygwin1.dll
from C:\cygwin\usr\local\msp430\bin. I double checked the enviroment
variables in the 'PATH' to be on the safe side.
It all seems to compile and work.
Thanks again.

Thank you for the link Santos
I google this link to but the problen is that the HowTo uses very old binarys
und they du not support my msp430x2013. j fond some MSPGCC stuff for linux bit
it don't suppert my MC too.
So I ask for a Noo HowTo buld a late version of mspgcc that suppert the 2013
controller.

One of the many documents I have read in the past two weeks mentioned
that the pre-built binaries for the MSP-gcc do not work well with
Eclipse and that it would be necessary to build them from scratch. I
have tried this numerous times by following the instructions in the
on-line manual. I have missed something.
The binutils build went fine, but when I try to build the gcc-3.2.3
core I get
Configuring for a i686-pc-cygwin host.
*** cannot find config.sub.
Mark@MobileRnD /home/mark/binutils-2.18.50/gcc-3.2.3
$ ./configure --target=msp430 --prefix=/usr/local/msp430
Configuring for a i686-pc-cygwin host.
*** cannot find config.sub.
