A system like Camlp4 could be installed indeed in the debugger (Camlp4
itself would not help since the grammar of the debugger is not the
grammar of OCaml).

For that, the debugger should call its parsing function through a
refeence. That reference could then be modified to specify another
parsing function. And the debugger should be able to load an object
(cmo) file which could modify that reference.

I don't know if somebody have thought of that or implemented something.
You may try to ask the ocaml team: perhaps somebody could implement it.
