The slide whistle I'd guess was a separate track at one point.....or was put on at the same time as a bounce to 1 final track. I doubt VH1 was done with a massive amount of tracks to work with.
If you look at the RHCP making of for the Blood Sugar album you can see them doing a whole lot of random instrument/percussion stuff afterward. I'd bet that's the sort of thing that went on for all sorts of tiny embellishments that you barely register.
The 'What makes this song great' series on YouTube is great for discovering all of the subtle tidbits.
