Ever considered setattr()? Not only does it appear to do the job but
also it avoids those __make__your__eyes__bleed__ double underscores.

>>> class A(object):
...    pass
...
>>> A.__dict__['foo'] = 123
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: object does not support item assignment
>>> setattr(A, 'foo', 123)
>>> A.foo
123
>>>>>> def bar(self):
...    print 'bar bar blog ship'
...
>>> setattr(A, 'bar', bar)
>>> eh = A()
>>> eh.bar()
bar bar blog ship
>>>
