bug#17895: 24.3.91; electric-indent-mode not quite right with comments in fortran-mode

When you hit RET in the middle of a line, of course.
And of course electric-indent-mode doesn't only trigger when you hit RET
(and for other keys, there'll usually be text on the current line), and
half the work of electric-indent-mode when triggered by RET is to
reindent the line where the RET was inserted (i.e. the "previous" line),
which is often/usually not empty either.

Agreed,
