Is it? How then can we explain the fact that without any mappings of source files stdio_filebuf.h is found by debugger whereas fstream.tcc is not? Files are placed as follows:
C:\MinGw\4.4.0-qt\lib\gcc\mingw32\4.4.0\include\c++\ext\stdio_filebuf.h
c:\MinGW\4.4.0-qt\lib\gcc\mingw32\4.4.0\include\c++\bits\fstream.tcc

I think it's not c: that is missing. These paths are quite different than mine. As you noticed they are probably taken from the system where build of Qt version of MinGw was made.
