You can use:

        def wrapAsMethod(to_be_wrapped)
          def wrapped(*args, **kw):
            return to_be_wrapper(*args, **kw)
          return wrapped

and then use in your class:

        class ...:
          ...
          myMethod = wrapAsMethod(builtin_function)


Such, this use case probably does not require a language change.
