Interesting. The debugger plugin uses a probably little used feature -  KXMLGUIClient::stateChanged() to switch between states from a set of predefined states defined in the ui.rc file. (kdevelop/languages/cpp/debugger/kdevdebugger.rc)

>From a quick glance at the KXMLGUIClient::stateChanged() code it seems KXMLGuiClient doesn't store the state, it only applies the setting it's been called with. The problem is that this means that when the toolbars have been rearranged (which apparently reverts state to the default) it has no idea what state the buttons should be in. 

As far as I can tell there is no reasonable way for the application to know if the toolbars have changed, so even if it were to store the needed state, it wouldn't know when to reapply it.

Unless I'm missing something (highly likely, this is KXMGUI, after all.. ;) ) this is a kdelibs issue.

Reassigning.
