  A couple of the books I have, one on ANSI C, state that returning a value
from main should be identical to calling exit(). In fact, they say it is
perfectly allowable for the startup code to execute main() with the following
call:

  exit(main(argc,argv));

  In this respect, Lattice is in error since it prototypes main as being 
type void, where all the books I've seen (ANSI books) say main should have
type int.
