Actually, ddd is just a (full feature) graphical front end to an
underlying debugger of your choice. The best choice open source debugger
is gdb. This is also the default debugger that ddd connects to when it
starts up. Gdb can help you to debug multi-process and/or multi-threaded
programs. See the documentation of gdb for details.
