gdb doesn't work well with qtcreator

Hi HU,

I tried QtCreator 2.5.0 (Based on Qt 4.8.2 - 32 bit) on my 8-STABLE i386 
system.

gdb works good (only one worning about inappropriate ioctl for terminal 
device), but it works as expected.

If I've time, I could try on a 9-STABLE system.

Regards,
Luca
