Most debuggin programs are built into your IDE if you use an IDE. There are others that detect memory leaks and other things like that.

Looking at the GNU compiler and debugger, I believe what happens is that the compiler creates a version of the code that retains information about the original source code. Then the debugger runs the code while observing all memory. This can be done either with application hooks, or by running it in a virtual environment and passing calls on to the system.
