[Since I'm requesting changes I'll suggest a new change log.]

In some configurations the xmon help string is larger than the 
xmon_printf buffer.  However, since its a fixed string we do not need 
printf to format it.  This patch adds xmon_puts and uses it to show the 
help string.

nonstdio.h #defines printf to xmon_printf.  Please add a similar line 
for puts, and use the define here.  (It will avoid an unnecessary 
difference with the user space version).
