* eval.c (evaluate_subexp_for_address): Clarify error message.
Use value_must_coerce_to_target.
* infcall.c (value_arg_coerce): Call value_coerce_to_target.
* valops.c (value_assign): Call value_coerce_to_target when
assigning to anything but internalvars. Leave GDB-side arrays
as arrays when assigning to internalvars.
(value_must_coerce_to_target, value_coerce_to_target): New.
(value_coerce_array, value_addr): Call value_coerce_to_target.
(value_array): Create the array in GDB's memory instead of
the inferior's.
* value.h (value_must_coerce_to_target, value_coerce_to_target):
Declare.
* gdb.texinfo (Expressions): Update description of malloced arrays.
* gdb.base/printcmds.exp (test_print_array_constants): Do not expect
*& to work on created array elements.
(Top level): Test print $pc with a file. Test string operations
without a target.
* gdb.base/ptype.exp: Do not expect *& to work on created array
elements.
