I think the rules should have been the same everywhere

The main function of a program corresponds to the final paragraph
of a novel. I never understood why programmers place this
function which possibly depends on all other functions in the
translation unit at the beginning.
BTW: You can't write
void main ()
{
x.writeln;
int x;
}
import std.stdio;
There is no reason why the declaration of x should not be
postponed.
