You need an ICE :-)

I know. :)

What is the MCU?

Texas Instruments MSP430F2330

But, none of the parts I've ever used supported anything other
than the basic "halt the processor and examine the state" JTAG
interfaces. Maybe I'm just not spending enough money on
processors.

What is the processor. AFAIK there are Ice for PIC, and 51 up.
It is the bigger parts that don't have ICE.

The parts I've used recently are ARM (Samsung), H8, AVR, and
MSP430. All are plain JTAG except the H8 which I don't
remember having any debugging support (except for a GDB stub
that I ported to it).

I think there might be real ICE for some AVR parts, but I
haven't spent much time on that one yet.
