Used it for debugging C (Score:1)
For Perl I prefer the '-d' debugging.
Are you adding debugging of XS modules?
If so I have a neat trick to debug using gdb that I learned from muppet on the perl-xs list.
I haven't tried it with ddd, I should test it someday.

set the env var PASTHRU_INC when compiling your extension:
$ # turn on debugging symbols, turn off optimization (to
$ # prevent out-of-order execution that makes debugging
$ # rather confusing)
$ export PASTHRU_INC='-Wall -g -O0'
then you can run your program in gdb and be taken to the exactly right
