[padb-users] Make "gdb set language c" for Fortran program to get correct value and offset of symbols.

[Jie Cai]

Hi Ashley,

Agreed, it makes more sense to set the language only when it is needed.

There is a little bug in line 6323. I have fixed it with the attached 
patch. Other than that works fine.

Kind Regards,
Jie
