they used defadvice when the code was installed.
I looked at the help text for defadvice and followed the link to Info (a very useful link!). In the help text I found nothing about defadvice usage in Emacs. The text in Info says "This is a clean method for a library to customize functions defined within Emacs--cleaner than redefining the whole function". Maybe it should be pointed out somewhere that this should not be used within Emacs itself?

Viper also has a lot of defadvice. It might be necessary in the case of viper, I do not know.
