Sorry, my mistake. In fact, this topic does tell about when advice won't
work, but it tells exactly opposite to what actually happens:

"Calls to the primitive from Lisp code will take note of the advice, but
calls from C code will ignore the advice."

Now, in my case `nreverse' is called from Lisp code, not from C code, so
according to the manual advice must work, right? And there is no single
word about differences in behavior due to byte-compiling.
