    I don't think there's a need to add any new primitive.  If someone wants
    to dig into advice.el to try and fix it, it can be fixed there (as
    evidenced by advice-add).
    I personally would rather tell people to use advice-add instead.

That would, in effect, be an incompatible change in interface.
Why make the change?  Is there something wrong with defadvice?
