You can find recent versions (4.3.2 is available ATM) of GCC for MinGW at

NMake support shouldn't be a problem for QtCreator, so, I think, it may be  
supported in the future. But AFAIK you can't "embed" Visual Studio  
debugger into other applications. But there's a stand alone debugger  
available for free at
