[Bug gdb/10584] New: MI vars with Python pretty-printers don't get updated

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

Hello,

If I create a Python pretty-printer, it doesn't get updated in GUI using gdb.
This is because the MI var doesn't get updated. To recreate:

Download bug.c, bug.py which I will attach in a minute.
> gcc -g bug.c
> gdb --int mi2
(gdb) python execfile("bug.py") # Install pretty-printer for type "MyInt"
(gdb) break main
(gdb) run
(gdb) next # do x = 3
(gdb) -var-create x * x
(gdb) next # x = 5
(gdb) -var-update * # Doesn't report x changing.

This was tested on a current CVS: 6.8.50.20090831

Thanks,
Noam
