Building binutils for mspgcc fails

What does the actual assembler source look like ?  (Ie please compile 
with --save-temps added and then look at the assembler source).

The problem is likely to be a gcc bug (generating bad msp430 assembler) 
rather than an assembler bug (failing to accept valid msp430 assembler), 
but without the the source file we cannot determine which tool is wrong.

Cheers
