I tentatively support this. But I am concerned that disallowing `-lFortran_main` and renaming the library will break some existing (badly configured) builds (this is not just theoretical - see my comments above). Maybe we should merge a deprecation warning on -lFortran_main before the LLVM release, then make these changes only after the release has branched?
