Re: [RFA/DWARF2] Fallback unknown language to C

I had a quicky look and I think it should be pretty simple. However, I
am not sure this is what you had in mind. Here is what I think might
work:

  - Add a new language in defs.h (``language_partial''?)
  - in c-lang.c: Create a new language vector. It seems that making this
    vector close to identical to the C or Asm language vector should be
    good enough. 

Once this is done and integrated, we can then update dwarf2read.c to
set the language to partial instead of unknown.

Does it correspond to what you were thinking?
