according to n3000 it's implementation-defined:
It shall have a return type of type int, but otherwise its type is implementation-defined. All implementations shall allow both of the following definitions of main:
int main() { /* ... */ }
and
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { /* ... */ }
Note:

Thank you for the port.
This seems to be duplicate of #3909, which is fixed as of now.
Please be advised that declaring argv as const is in violation of the C++ Standard.
