How to get a reference of the 'owner' class to which a method belongs in Python 3.X?

I'm porting my existing work to Python 3.X, but...
class Foo:
def bar(self):
pass
mthd = Foo.bar
assert mthd.im_class is Foo # this does not work in py3k
So, how can I get a reference to Foo? This is important when writing
decorators, the only way I can think out is:
class Foo:
def bar(self):
'Foo' # manually declare the owner class
pass
mthd = Foo.bar
assert mthd.__globals__[mthd.__doc__] is Foo # this works
class Child(Foo):
def bar(self):
'Child' # I have to override all method defined by bar but do nothing
pass
child_mthd = Child.bar
assert child_mthd.__globals__[child_mthd.__doc__] is Child # this works
But the code above is quite ugly and abuses the __doc__. Is there any
equivalent in py3k of im_class?
Thanks,
Cosmia
