This should not be a  problem as for all dynamic types we do first a

Can you show me the code copying the type?

Therefore, next time when we print variables from the target we have
to resolve it's type again (as we resolved only the copy before).
In gdb/gdbtypes.c, line 2027 (line incl. patch)

    static struct type *
    resolve_dynamic_struct (struct type *type,
                struct property_addr_info *addr_stack)
   {
     struct type *resolved_type;
     int i;
     unsigned resolved_type_bit_length = 0;

    gdb_assert (TYPE_CODE (type) == TYPE_CODE_STRUCT);
    gdb_assert (TYPE_NFIELDS (type) > 0);

    resolved_type = copy_type (type);

The same you find in:
- resolve_dynamic_array
- resolve_dynamic_range
- resolve_dynamic_union
