Pretty much the same way as with any other debugger frontend, i.e. "hope
that the backend plays nicely".

For the particular case of GDB state-of-the-art should be close to
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15231

For the particular case of LLDB I haven't checked yet. Could do tomorrow.

This has not much, or even nothing, to do with Qt Creator. Qt Creator just
asks some "real debugger" to produce data based on "debug information" some
"real compiler" put "somewhere". Depending on what the compiler actually 
produces and how the debugger interprets it this ends up between "complete
bogus" and "useful stuff". All Creator can do is to somehow visualize the
result, or in some cases to tweak the enviroment or avoid known-to-be-bad
code paths to improve the result. If the compiler says "variable x is at
address X" in the debug info whereas it put it at address Y in the binary,
there's not really much that can be done (and yes, that happened before)
