I agree, very nice.
For those following along at home, with this patch it looks as follows:
(fhpd) help print
print expression [-format d|o|x|t] -option ...; where options are:
-format print format
-location print the expression's location
-raw print the expression's raw value
-tree print the expression's AST
-type print the expression's type
-value print the expression's value (default)
The print command evaluates and displays an expression. The debugger
interprets the expression by looking up the value(s) associated with
each symbol and applying the operators. The result of an expression
may be a scalar value or an aggregate (array, array slice, record, or
structure.
