I've seen that problem as well on KDE 4 apps, maybe this because QString has
different members in Qt3/Qt4?
Anyway, the important thing is that the GDB message boxes are very annoying
when stepping through the code, they show up on every step if the
variables/watches window has a QString which is shown (IIRC (kdevelop does
not work at the moment for me, so I can't test that right now)).
Can you add a "Don't show again" checkbox to the GDB error message box?
Or, alternatively, add "Show debugger errors in messagebox" to the context
menu of the debugger view (toggleable, with checkbox).
I am sure there are other situations than this one where GDB message boxes are
not wanted.
