Why do nearly all Macinthosh development systems lack a symbolic debugger?

As far as I now only MacMETH (Modula 2) comes with a symbolic
debugger.

Am I wrong? 
Are there other (preferably C) development systems on the market which 
include symbolic debuggers?

What about real soon now?
Are there C development systems in development which will include symbolic
debuggers?
Are there symbolic debuggers in development for existing C development 
systems?

If answeres on all these questions is negative then why don't they exist?

Thanks in advance for any answers.
