MSYS2 has a configuration matrix on their website:
https://www.msys2.org/docs/environments/

Despite that I can confirm that debugging via Qt Creator works 
significnatly much better with lldb than with gdb on Windows. The GNU 
debugger is barly usable on non-trivial projects, while lldb is not 
super fast, but usable.
