Maybe the debugger installed by the Apple Developer Tools is not located 
inside /usr/bin? Could you inside a terminal window whether you
a) can launch "gdb"?
b) (if a) succeeeds) check what's the path returned by "which gdb"?

If b) works then you'll need to set the path to this.

Note: I'm mostly guessing here, as I don't have a Mac OS X...
