 Fix trac #15702, as a followon to fix for #13704.

 Summary:
 The effect of this change is that -main-is changes the default
 export list for the main module, but does not apply the same
 change to non-main modules.  This fixes some cases where -main-is
 was used to wrap a module that expected that default behavior
 (exporting `main`, even when that wasn't the main entry point
 name).
