I don't know what you mean by "mixed together in the same list", they are
printed as [key] = value, [key] = value, [key] = value e.g.

$1 = std::map with 3 elements = {["bar"] = 2, ["baz"] = 3, ["foo"] = 1}


With your patch I get:

$1 = std::map with 3 elements = {[{first = "bar", second = 2}] = {first =
"baz", second = 3}, [{first = "foo", second = 1}] = }

This is not an improvement!


The smart pointer printers have been improved for gcc-8, do you still think
something needs to be changed?
