Sure, how about the appended?

commit c8438c9f872a65811d99589ee7095c12e75d2144

    Pass void_context_p to parse_expression
    
    An earlier patch pointed out that nothing in GDB sets void_context_p
    when parsing an expression.  This patch fixes this omission.
    
    "print" and "call" differ in that the former will print a value that
    has void type, while the latter will not.  AdaCore has had a patch for
    a long time that uses this distinction to help with overload
    resolution.  In particular, in a "call" context, a procedure will be
    chosen, while in a "print" context, a zero-argument function will be
    chosen instead.
    
    Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 32.

    2020-12-18  Tom Tromey  <tromey@adacore.com>
    
            * parse.c (parse_expression): Add void_context_p parameter.  Use
            parse_exp_in_context.
            * printcmd.c (print_command_1): Change voidprint to bool.  Pass to
            parse_expression.
            (print_command, call_command): Update.
            * expression.h (parse_expression): Add void_context_p parameter.
