[Bug mi/10615] New: Nested structs don't get updated in MI

["noamraph at gmail dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

Hello,

Thankfully, Tom fixed bug 10584. However, it seems that members of structs which
are members of pretty-printed variables still don't get updated.

To recreate:

Download bug.c, bug.py.
> gcc -g -o bug bug.c
> gdb --int mi2 --nx bug
> -enable-pretty-printing
> python execfile('bug.py')
> b main
> r
# Initialize m to {{0},0}
> n
# Do what a standard UI is expected to do to print the m variable
# Its structure is: { {int a; int b;} s; int x; }
> -var-create m * m
> -var-list-children m
> -var-evaluate-expression m.s
> -var-list-children m.s
> -var-evaluate-expression m.s.a
> -var-evaluate-expression m.s.b
> -var-evaluate-expression m.x
# Modify m.s.a
> n
# Check if something was updated
> -var-update *
^done,changelist=[]
# Oops.

Thanks,
Noam
