The only way to obtain the value of a dynamic variable objects (= the return
value of the pretty printer) is -data-evaluate-expresssion. However, -data-
evaluate-expresion cannot be used for children of dynamic variable objects,
since it is impossible to provide the required expression.
The same should possibly returned in the results of -var-update and -var-list-
children.
