I've found that gdb-in-Xcode is more reliable at being able to get a backtrace if you launch the program with the debugger (i.e. "breakpoints enabled"), versus having it try to attach only when the process crashes. But it's still not 100%.
It's not clear that this is a problem with gdb, though. Some program bugs can corrupt the stack or other areas of memory sufficiently to confuse gdb. Those can be a pain to debug. The only thing I can suggest is to set a breakpoint as near the point of the crash as you can, and then start single-stepping. If you're lucky, at some consistent spot the debugger will go blooey as the stack gets wiped out; then you can try to figure out what's wrong with the code there.
