Can you move this package to gnu/packages/debug.scm instead of adding a
new module?

Since very recently, you can now use:

  (string-append "CC=" ,(cc-for-target))

instead of the let binding and conditional.

No need to mention free here, since everything in Guix is free
software.  The GitHub tagline is pretty good:

  Debugging tool for MSP430 MCUs

This should be 'gpl2+', since the source files say "GPL 2 or any later
version".

Can you send an updated patch?  Thanks in advance!
