The default value for quadruple is an empty list. Shouldn't that be enough (I guess not from your experience with F, but I wonder why)?
Perhaps a quicker fix for all elements would be to change the default behaviour of AtomType.
I suggest editing line 118 to:
self.quadruple = quadruple or [0]
so zero quadruple bonds becomes the default.

Actually, we don't know that the default was causing a problem, we just thought we'd make Fluorine the same as Chlorine. I think our actual problem was solved by the other change.
