I too use Eclipse+CDT (and other plugins like linuxtools, pyDEV)for C/C++  
on Linux/BSD. Eclipse is also the "de facto" standard for C/C++ in the  
embedded world. See for example www.yoctoproject.org. Also android  
development toolkit (ADT) is eclipse based. See  
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html.
Eclipse+CDT has improved a _lot_ over the last 5/6 years. It has become my  
'IDE' of choice for C/C++ development over C::B, codelite, anjuta,  
KDevelop, VIM etc on Linux/BSD. On windows I still prefer MSVS for C++  
which is still way ahead of eclipse+CDT, but the gap is closing...

In my experience good tools (especially debugger!) and integration with  
MSVS/Eclipse/Xcode are mandatory to gain broader adaption. Most of my  
co-workers can't even get anything done without a IDE!
