But rather than any of that, you could have used the Python tools as-is.
 They support the DTR inversion already.

<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-msp430-tools>
<http://pythonhosted.org/python-msp430-tools/>

There is a ready-to-run command line Python script "msp430-bsl" that has
a switch "--invert-reset" to invert the DTR line (used to reset the
msp430 microcontroller, for those that are not familiar with the chip).

<http://pythonhosted.org/python-msp430-tools/commandline_tools.html#msp430-bsl>

The Python code here is written and maintained by Chris Liechti, who has
been developing open source msp430 tools for a decade or so - it is good
quality stuff.
