The right thing to do is to put make stdout a builtin and deprecate the
print statement.  The "smart" behavior of the print statement causes more
trouble than it's worth.  I admit that I use the print statement myself
occasionally, but only because 'sys.stdout.write' is too long to type all
the time, and never with more than one argument.
