This is actually quite easy to do yourself,
this example adds this to puts, but you can
modify other routines (like flush()) too:

without warning
procedure oldPuts(integer f,sequence s)
puts(f,s)
end procedure

procedure puts(sequence f,sequence s)
for o=1 to length(f) do
	oldPuts(f[o],s)
end for
end procedure

--test
constant file=open("test","wb")
puts({file,1},"Testing...")
