It's ok, 'cause he's wrong here, as well.

Every Unix kernel I've looked at (i.e., all of them I could get my grubby
little hands on 8-)) had a main.

The kernels I'm running on right now (at home, called up to work, rlogin'd
to another machine) all have a main in them.

Hold on a sec.  Yep, just took a look at the 4.3 kernel sources, and it has
a main, as well.
