Works for me:

  Python 3.0b2 (r30b2:65080, Jul 20 2008, 20:03:32)
  [GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> class A:
  ...     def add(self, x, y):
  ...         return x+y
  ...
  >>> class B:
  ...     pass
  ...
  >>> B.add = A.add
  >>>
  >>> print(B().add(1, 2))
