Staticmethods won't work anymore:

>>> class Test(object):
...     @staticmethod
...     def foo():
...         pass
...     def __getattribute__(self, name):
...         v = object.__getattribute__(self, name)
...         if hasattr(v, '__get__'):
...             return v.__get__(self, self.__class__)
...         return v
...
>>> test = Test()
>>> test.foo()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: foo() takes no arguments (1 given)
