Yes, the proposed fix would be an incompatible change. But my assumption is 
that in scenarios where main(...) is called programmatically the fix would 
correct an erroneous behavior. In these scenarios whatever is being passed as 
the first entry in the argv array gets lost currently. Possibly many users who 
already noticed this implemented a workaround (I changed the pyunit Ant task's 
code to add a dummy argument as the first element in the argv array).
