 The ISO/IEC 9899:TC2 Committee Draft of May 6, 2005 specifies in section 
5.1.2.2.1 (Program startup) that main() must not be declared be the 
implementation, and must be defined as
  int main(void) { /* ... */ }
or
  int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /* ... */ }
or in some other implementation-defined manner.

 In other words, C99 allows it if RTEMS allows it.

 Arnout
