Cannot debug registers / installing newer MingW

[Mr. Vichr]

While debugging, opening the View/Views/Registers immediately crashes GDB and kills the application being debugged. I found on View/Views/Debugger Log, that the problem is with Qt creator sending command

-data-list-register-values r

that crashes GDB. I used the GDB console to find that the crash is caused by registers fs_base and gs_base

~" fs_base     152  152    536       8 long long       general,all,save,restore\n"
~" gs_base     153  153    544       8 long long       general,all,save,restore\n"

All other registers work fine:

-data-list-register-values r 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

This happens on both my machines (Windows 10, Qt Creator 5 and 8).

I'm wondering if I could install latest version of GDB to see if it helps? There are several MingW and GDB downloads on the internet, but they don't seem to fit into c:\Qt\Tools\mingw810_64\ folder.
