The Java VM spec chapter "2.16.1 Virtual Machine Start-up" reads:
...
The method main must be declared public, static, and void.

	But the attached test shows that VM doesn't reject a class containing
method main() declared without public keyword.

--------------------------------- execution00201.jasm

public class execution00201
{

static Method main:"([Ljava/lang/String;)V"
	stack 2 locals 1
{
		bipush	95/*STATUS_TEMP*/;
		invokestatic	Method java/lang/System.exit:"(I)V";
		return;
}
} // end Class execution00201
