This needs consideration. Pyrex currently makes use of
this behaviour when defining a Python class having Pyrex
functions as methods.

However, a better solution for Pyrex would be to add
method-binding behaviour to the C function object, so
that C functions can be used directly as methods. The
above example would then work simply by doing

   Example.id = id
