Fortunately I implemented demangling already, so that's not a 
real problem.

So according to Jacob's comment it's actually possible to get gdb 
on OSX - but probably just with a wrong build configuration, i.e. 
the mi2 interface for gdb is not available - or is it? Just try 
executing gdb --interpreter=mi2 to see whether Mono-D is able to 
handle its output properly.
