I figure the responsibility for this would probably reside more with the compiler than the debugger (e.g. -gnostdinc++) but I as hoping it could be done already.

Either, we can mark the debug information with `system header', or gdb can strncmp ("/usr/include") and a few others... :-) gcc has a slightly easier time know when a header is a system header, but a project GUI has a easier time having check boxes for components you want to stop in and which ones you don't want to stop in, with system headers being just one of the boxes.
