Yup, using Insight (the cygwin GUI for gdb), which connects over a null modem to the GDB stub in ntoskrnl. I'm using a slightly-modified version, since the official one insists that when doing a stack backtrace the frame pointer should increase for each stack frame (which is correct generally but breaks when you're backtracing from the kernelmode stack back into the usermode stack). Also the official version has a problem with hardware watchpoints.
I use the Win32 port which comes as an add-on package with DevCpp.
However I've recently switched my pen drive compiler from DevCpp to Code::Blocks I'm finding the Code::Blocks built in debugger (which also uses mingw gdb) to be excellent and have started using that in place of Insight, as it doesn't seem have any of the problems Insight has.
In fact, I'm so impressed with Code::Blocks as a whole, I think it makes DevCpp obsolete and needs a backend writing for rbuild. It's certainly the best mingw enabled development tool for ROS I've come across. ;)
