MSA2 compilation with GCC (Announce)

I haven't (yet again) tried MSA2 recently. In fact, I only once barely tried to convert PSR Invaders and failed (and gave up). But, out of boredom, I did check your Github today again (thinking of TP overlays, barely):

Just FYI:

.C (capital C) means compile as C++ with GCC. I guess you didn't notice yet? (They're like 95% compatible.) You can use "-x c" to always override filename detection.

Also, strip can be done with "gcc -s" (which I think actually just refers to "ld -s" instead). So you don't need two separate steps to compile and strip.
