Debugging with GDB

##### Modula-2 defaults

If type and range checking are set automatically by GDB, they both default to `on` whenever the working language changes to Modula-2. This happens regardless of whether you or GDB selected the working language.

If you allow GDB to set the language automatically, then entering code compiled from a file whose name ends with `.mod` sets the working language to Modula-2. See Having GDB set the language automatically, for further details.
