    Issue error on erroneous expression
    
    A while back I discovered that this does not issue an error:
    
        (gdb) p $x = (void * ) 57
        $3 = (void *) 0x39
        (gdb) p $x + 7 = 3
        $6 = (void *) 0x3
    
    This patch fixes the bug.
    Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 36.
