Neither gcc nor clang accept void main. Remove this bad information. Tested as follows:

    $ cat 045.cpp
    void main()
    {
    }
    $ g++ 045.cpp
    045.cpp:1:11: error: ‘::main’ must return ‘int’
     void main()
               ^
    $ clang++ 045.cpp
    045.cpp:1:1: error: 'main' must return 'int'
    void main()
    ^~~~
    int
    1 error generated.
    $ g++ --version
    g++ (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) 4.8.2
    $ clang++ --version
