It can't be quite that simple, since there are _two_ allowed types for
main.  (Specifically, int (*)(void) and int (*)(int, char **).)  Thus,
no single prototype can be correct; it would have to be special-cased.

I wouldn't mind getting a warning if main had any type other than one
of those two.  (Though the warning should probably be suppressable, for
kernel builds and other non-hosted environments.)
