No. It's not needed, and not possible anymore.

The compiled "helpers" were used with non-Python enabled versions of GDB,
including Apple's GDB, which is gone.

LLDB (also using Python) should work out of the box on Mac.

Check that the Kit you are using indeed points to LLDB, if it does and
it still doesn't work I'd suggest to create a bug report and attach the
Debugger Log (contents of right pane of Windows->Views->Debugger).
