class MyObject:
   def __init__(self, name):
     self.name = name

   def do_this_default(self):
      print "default do_this implementation for %s" % self.name

def custom_do_this(): #method to be added
   print "custom do_this implementation for %s" % self.name

You forget the self argument (this explains the error you got).

def funcToMethod(func,clas,method_name=None):
"""Adds func to class so it is an accessible method; use method_name to
specify the name to be used for calling the method.
    The new method is accessible to any instance immediately."""
    import new
    method = new.instancemethod(func,None,clas)
    print method
    if not method_name: method_name=func.__name__
    clas.__dict__[method_name]=func

It's a lot easier than that; just add the *function* object to the class namespace:
setattr(clas, method_name, func)
If you know the name when you write the code, just set the attribute:

py> o = MyObject("hello")
py> MyObject.custom_do_this = custom_do_this
py> o.custom_do_this()
custom do_this implementation for hello

new.instancemethod is useful to add specific methods to individual instances, but it's not used to add methods globally to the class.

Error I am getting;
TypeError: custom_do_this() takes no arguments (1 given)

Add the self argument and you're done.

Why am I getting it?

Also how can I do this in new style class (inherited from 'object')?

It's the same thing, no difference.
