Thats something I wanted to do, See [RfC] Cleanup of ParrotIOLayerAPI
I just wanted to let the release pass by.

I don't want to remove the PIO_puts function; It will just be
changed to 
INTVAL
PIO_puts(theINTERP, PMC *pmc, const char *s)
{
    return PIO_write(interpreter, pmc, s, strlen(s));
}

Maybe a rename is also needed. Have we decided for a suffix for
functions taking a c-string yet?
