Part of the fallout from PR10750 is that we now have a hard limit on the number
of arguments that can be used in a print call.  It would be nicer if the
translator would just split that up into manageable pieces, so the internal
limit is masked from the user.  For example, if the limit were 3, then:

  println(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) ==> ( println(1, 2, 3) + println(4, 5) )
  sprint(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) ==> ( sprint(1, 2, 3) . sprint(4, 5) )
