Details:

I just tried to use gdb to display an array when debugging Octave and I get
strange results


display-dense-array (a)
array object:   output (a)
dimensions:
ndims:   output (a).dimensions.rep[-1]
dims:   output *(a).dimensions.rep@(a).dimensions.rep[-1]

rep =   output *(a).rep
rep.data =   output *(a).rep.data@(a).rep.len


This is with gdb 7.11.1 and a recent tip.
