So, do you mean this can't be fixed?  Too bad, but ok, that's what I
thought.

But then, we IMHO should improve the docstring of `called-interactively':

1.  This sentence:

   This function is meant for implementing advice and other
   function-modifying features.

Is there a "not" missing?

2.  Explicitly say that `called-interactively' will not work when used
in an adviced function.

This is something completely different than 1.  1. is about implementing
advice via `called-interactively'.  2. says that if you advice any
function that already uses it, it will stop working.  

So, my wish is to improve the docstring of `called-interactively' a bit.
Then, this report can be closed.
