This works for me with 2.22 and 2.3a2:

class C(object):
    def g(cls):
        print 'C', cls
    g = classmethod(g)

class D(C):
    def g(cls):
        print 'D', cls
        super(D, cls).g()
    g = classmethod(g)

Both D.g()  and D().g() print:

D <class '__main__.D'>
C <class '__main__.D'>

Am I missing some subtlety here?
