No, it's the way it's supposed to work. "putline" really just sends a
stream of data ... there's no semantic significance to the number of
putline calls you use to send the stream, only to the contents of the
stream. (By the same token, it's unlikely that deliberately aggregating
such calls would be much of a win.)
