It's not entirely straightforward, it seems.  An earlier attempt appears to
have fizzled out:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2007-09/threads.html#00289

I do not yet understand Andrew Pinski's objection: 

" This is wrong as it causes the middle-end to also emitt a call to
__main inside MAIN__.  Now you will get two calls to __main which
calls the global constructors now twice. "

as I don't understand what the "also" refers to.  Right now there are precisely
no calls to __main at all.  Perhaps there used to be an actual C-linkage main
function in libgfortran.  Yes, wait a minute, this is what libgfortranbegin
used to get us, is it not?
