Could you please give an example of this ?

If you mean:

    class A:
       def f(x):
          print x

    class B:
       pass

    a=A()
    B.f = a.f
    b=B()
    b.f()     #surprise: it works!!

then that is equally "weird" as my case.
In fact is seems more appropriate to use a.f.im_func in this
case to "convert the bound method to an unbound one".

Maybe this happens more often though?


Thanks,
