If I wanted to program 14-pin DIP MSP430s, is it as simple as taking an eZ430 target module, removing the surface-mounted MSP430, and wiring a DIP socket to the 14 pin terminals?

Klein aber oho !
yes... but why not just wire the Spy Bi-Wire interface to a header? That's all you need. The interface between the FET and the target board is gnd, vcc and two SBW wires.
What kind of connector would I need to connect to the little programming module?
The part number is in the manual for the ez430. At a pinch you can use four strands of wire.
Not all MSP430's have spy-by-wire. Make sure you use one that does, or EZ430 won't work.
Thanks. It's a Mill-Max 851-93-004-20-001000. This is simply a socket for
4 pins 0.05 inch apart (half of the more familiar spacing).It seems to be a hard thing to find, though. It may be cheaper to buy a second ez430 and take the chip off the target board.
Is that 4 SIL or two rows of 4? Either way, Farnell have them, though you'll have to chop up a bigger connector-

The OP specified 14-DIP, and AFAIK the _only_ parts that are available in this package are from the 430F2xxx series (i.e. all have SBW).
42p for the connector, probably 10 pounds to ship it here (USA)...
Ahwellnow, you didn't say you were there. Try Newark, which is eminently anagrammable.

I wouldn't have gotten this quite so quickly except that I have all five Bottom stage shows on my laptop and they are playing while I work... :)
Still more: Rankew, Kwaner, Rekwan, Reknaw... You think of the rest.
The only way to get them seems to be to scrounge some samples from Mill-Max. I've ordered some and they are apparently in the post to me.

Or, more simply: egrep '^[newark]{6}$' /usr/share/dict/words | grep n | grep e | grep w | grep a | grep r | grep k
