I am tempted to suggest adding "clear_advice(void)" in advice.[ch], so
that people adding new advices do not have to hunt for even the above
hunk.  It would be a good direction to go in general _if_ we will have
more like this --porcelain thing in other parts of the system.

I didn't do so because that "_if_" is still iffy.
