You can still build insight out of cvs.  It will then use the current
gdb.

There are actually quite a few gdb UIs, in addition to Insight and
DDD.  Maybe MI made it too easy to write gdb UIs :-)

There's one written in Ada whose name I forget.

Eclipse also comes with a gdb GUI.  (The Eclipse one is interesting
because, AIUI, it saves breakpoints more intelligently, as markers in
your source.)

Apple also has one in their IDE, but I know little about it.

Finally, Anjuta[1] has one and KDevelop[2] has one.

I haven't used most of these, and whether they meet your "usable"
qualification is subjective...
