You ARE kidding, right?  Puts can be something ridiculously simple.
Something like this would work:
(I know that it's not "correct" but the concept is. :-)

puts(string)
char  string
	register char *cp = string;
	while(*cp)
		putchar(*cp++);
	putchar('\n');

Why use printf for something this simple?

Would they do something like:
#define puts(x) printf("%s\n", x);

Ack.
