To recreate expression, you need to use the -var-info-path-expression
MI command. Any other approach is not going to be reliable. Please see:

	http://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb_25.html#SEC421

for documentation. The command was added to gdb tree on 2007-08-31, and
should be included in both gdb 6.7 and 6.8 releases.
