I'm not sure that I see this.  If the variable goes out of scope then, as the
comment says, then value_of_root returns NULL.  But (*varp)->value is not NULL,
so install_new_value returns 1 and r.changed is set to 1 and r gets pushed onto
the result vector.

Yes, please post that.  The current testsuite covers varobjs that go out of
scope.  If it is a regression then there needs to be a test that covers this
mode of failure in any case.
