def bind(function, arg1):
    def bound(*args, **kwargs):
        return function(arg1, *args, **kwargs)

    return bound

class tobj:
    def __init__(self, n):
        self.op1 = bind(op1, n)
        self.op2 = bind(op2, n)


Python 2.2: works
Python 2.1: requires "from __future__ import nested_scopes"
Python <=2.0: sorry
