More concretely, deprecating it for a few releases would allow us to

We'd get:
rt.c:1:6: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'main' with no type
[-fpermissive]
main() { return 0; }

I wonder if it's currently a warning because the implicit int is used in
configure checks. If this is the case, maybe we cannot make it an error
without altering the result of configure tests?
Thanks,
