Compiler warning #2553: nonstandard second parameter "char *[]" of "main", expected "char *[]" or "char **"

Hi,

Using warning level -W4 or -W5 I get this strange compiler warning. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

Intel(R) C++ Intel(R) 64 Compiler XE for applications running on Intel(R) 64, Version 12.0.3.175 Build 20110309

hello.c(3): remark #2553: nonstandard second parameter "char *[]" of "main", expected "char *[]" or "char **"
  int main(int argc, char *argv[])

Or is this a known bug in Version 12 of the compiler?

This is a known bug in Version 12 of the compiler. DPD200196948 in our internal bugs database.

Yes if you are on Windows and compiling in C. This was fixed in release 13.0. Please upgrade to the latest version of compiler (14.0).
