That looks right. I've done that for other targets, but I've
never tried it for MSP430.

Bummer. :)

It sure looks like it is.
I compiled and incrementally linked the following two files:
---------file1.c---------------
extern int i;
int foo(void)
{
return i+1;
}
------------------------------
---------file2.c---------------
extern int foo(void);
int i;
int bar(void)
{
return i + foo();
}
------------------------------
It worked fine using gcc for IA32, ARM, H8, and AVR.
But it fails for MSP430:
$ msp430-ld -r -o foo.o file1.o file2.o
file1.o: In function foo':file1.c:(.text+0x6): undefined reference to i'
file2.o: In function bar':file2.c:(.text+0xa): undefined reference to i'
Like you said, it's only a problem for uninitialized variables.
If I add an initializer to the declaration of "i", then it's
OK.
