I'll get the ball rolling again, and hopefully it won't roll over me. ;)

The decoration is setting the class type's f1 attribute correctly, but
doing something strange in the local namespace.

>>> class C:
...   @staticmethod
...   def f1(): pass
...   print f1
...
<staticmethod object at 0x00A69A70>
>>> print C.f1
<function f1 at 0x00A60830>

The class statement's local namespace is pretty strange. I think I
mightl go back to pretending there isn't one.
