A monkey-patch to __builtins__.super would probably also work.

Assuming the first argument to the callee is 'self' or 'cls':

import sys
_super = __builtins__.super
def monkeypatch(*args, **kwargs):
    if (args == ()) and (kwargs=={}):
        try:
            obj = sys._getframe().f_back.f_locals['self']
        except KeyError:
            obj = sys._getframe().f_back.f_locals['cls']
        return _super(type(obj),obj)
    else:
        return _super(*args, **kwargs)

class patcher(object):
   def __init__(self):
      __builtins__.super = monkeypatch
   def __del__(self):
      __builtins__.super = _super

_patch = patcher()
