Debugging MSP430 from within C::B

Cannot compute :)
Can you explain what you had in mind with this sentence?

I don't have any experience with embedded development and I can test or improve the code.
But if the behaviour is the same when the connection is PC<->PC I can.

I installed Code::Blocks on Windows with the bundled MinGW and saw that it includes gdbserver. So, I replicated the test above (gdbserver and gdb on the same machine) on Windows and the process pausing with the stop button problem occurs. Code::Blocks says "Trying to pause running process..." and the process doesn't pause.
So, both problems can be replicated using only 1 machine. You don't need an embedded target just a remote target.

Great, I'll see what I can do to fix them:)

It seems the debugger pausing problem has been discussed before. See: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php?topic=8577.0

Would it be better if I put the information that I find in the bugs or here or both?
I did some more research on the break problem. It seems that in Windows you can send a SIGINT with the WM_CHAR message (See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms811896#ucmgch09_topic3). Unfortunately, the documentation here is not detailed and I have not been able to get this to work. I made a program that uses SendMessage to send messages indicating Ctrl is pressed and then C but it doesn't seem to do any thing. I haven't even been able to use it to press keys in Notepad and get characters to appear.
