No, it's optional.  If you don't inlude "self" in the signature,
it's not passed.  You can see this in the source of ExternalMethod.py:

                if ((self._v_func_code.co_argcount-
                     len(self._v_func_defaults or ()) - 1 == len(args))
                    and self._v_func_code.co_varnames[0]=='self'):
                    return f(self.aq_parent.this(), *args, **kw)


I think the problem lies elsewhere. Traceback?
