This might not be directly relevant here, but in general, I'd steer
clear of main() for such experiments. Due to its special nature (several
possible signatures, but the calling code in druntime stays the same),
there is quite a bit of extra magic going on internally.
For example, you wouldn't normally find "xor EAX, EAX" in a
void-returning functions, as its purpose is to set the return value to
0, which implicitly happens to make the void main() and void
main(string[]) variants conform to the "full" int main(string[]) signature.

Thank you much. Things are starting to get a little clearer. Oh, thanks
Vlad.
