for building msp430-gcc you are forced to link msp430-binutils but this is a problem if you already have binutils installed.
It would be much better if msp430-binutils would be keg_only.

keg_only would be stupid, because the bin-executables would not be found. But no executable of msp430-binutils conflicts with binutils so it would be nice if it could be linked directly. At the moment you have to use force the linking (which would overwrite duplicate files).

Yes, forcing the linking is unfortunate! I couldn't find a way around it, though, to install both packages under the same prefix. If someone better with the Homebrew API is watching, I'd love to remove that step.
