I've been using cgdb on Mac OS which is gdb but with a curses ui. 
On Linux I use DDD but its not ideal as it looks terrible and 
crashes etc. I've also tried something called affinic debugger on 
Mac OS but again it's just a ui on gdb and is slow.

D could do with someone spending a bit of time polishing up a 
preferred debugger currently one doesn't really exist.
