No, returning from main() also invokes a QuitGS call.  You only get an
RTL if you use the #pragma rtl directive.

That is beside the point - the shell has to support shell programs
exiting with RTL, as it is a documented exit method.  (In fact, the
GS/OS reference manual says that it is up to the shell whether it
supports exiting via QuitGS.)
