Too many arguments

Now I know we are talking past each other. A very small experiment shows that main does not accept extra args:

int main() { int done;

if(!done) { done=1; main(1,({}),({}),1,1,1,1); } }

multiarg.pike:7:Too many arguments to main. multiarg.pike:7:Expected: function( : int) multiarg.pike:7:Got : function(int(1..1), array(zero), array(zero), int(1..1), int(1..1), int(1..1), int(1..1) : void | mixed)

Wrong. main() will get 3 arguments, which is more than the 0 required by its type. main() will thus have to accept more arguments than needed without throwing an error.
