Sorry if I've been communicating badly (but it takes two to do it).
I honestly thought I did address your concerns but must have misunderstood you.
Please tell me what you believe I have not explained properly, and I promise
I'll do my best to answer it without referring to any previous message.
Meanwhile, here is a proof of concept which may clarify what I failed to put in
words. It actually runs both the old and new value parsers on data sent by GDB,
and logs an error message if discrepancies are found. They seem to work
identically unless there are strings with octal escapes, which are handled
correctly by the new parser. (Of course, a proper patch would not retain the
old parser.)
If gdb-mi-decode-strings is non-nil, then file names, string contents etc are
properly decoded as UTF-8 as expected, without any of the bugginess of the
current code. Otherwise raw bytes are shown as octal escapes, which also fixes
the original bug.
