This compiles successfully:

int main (lazy char [][] args)
{
        return args.length;
}

But at runtime I get "Illegal instruction". Tested with gdc from SVN repos (uses dmd 0.166) on Mac OS X.

I would call this a bug in the compiler. The spec states there are only four valid forms of main:

void main() { ... }
void main(char[][] args) { ... }
int main() { ... }
int main(char[][] args) { ... }

Since that isn't one of them, I would think the compiler should issue an error.
