Programming an FPGA using the MSP430

Hi all,
Iâ??ve read the C code made by Xilinix to program a FPGA using an embedded
microcontroller.
The application is written to fit the 8051 and I have to port it into a
MSP430f1232 to program a Spartan 3.

In the application description it says it is easy to port the code into
others microcontroller and it is only needed to change few functions in
the file ports.c but my GCC refuses to compile the application..
Does anyone know how to port this application into our beloved MSP430??!

Iâ??ve configured the micro to have the TMS wire at port 3 pin 0, the TDI
wire at port 3 pin 1, the TDO wire at port 3 pin 2 and the TCK at port 3
pin 3.

The application description can be found here:
http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/application_notes/xapp058.pdf
And the provided C code can be found here:
ftp://ftp.xilinx.com/pub/swhelp/cpld/eisp_pc.zip


Thanks in advance to all who will give me a hand fixing this little
issue!
