`defalias' is clearly not right, since it hijacks the function. But if
we change it to advice-add, I think it'd be OK to enable this
edebug help.
I think it would also be good to add hooks to the native printing system
so that such tweaks can be done more reliably. Ideally, these same
hooks could be used for things like desktop and savehist to replace
markers or other "non-printable" objects with alternative output.
