Thank you very much for the help. I never paid attention to this details in "C-h
k", and you are right it didn't say it was an interactive function and only when
I add "(interactive)" to the yank advice "C-h k" will report an interactive
function, however, it doesn't matter what "C-h k" says, the problem is still the
same.

Removing the ARGLIST didn't help, though it counteracted the side effect of
adding "(interactive)" to "flet" in that I can again make yank work again by
re-evaluate `evil-yank' (C-M-x). I think the real question (and interesting)
here is why "flet" doesn't restore the original `evil-yank' after "ad-do-it".
