That doesn't work with builtin functions because they don't implement
the descriptor protocol:

Python 3.3.0 (v3.3.0:bd8afb90ebf2, Feb  8 2013, 00:38:29)
[GCC 4.7.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> class Example:
...     id = id
...
>>> Example().id()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: id() takes exactly one argument (0 given)

You can use PyInstanceMethod_Type to wrap a builtin method in something
that acts like a normal method. I implemented the type for Python 3000
when I removed the unbound method object. It's not available to pure
Python code except for testing:

>>> import _testcapi
>>> class Example:
...     id = _testcapi.instancemethod(id)
...
>>> Example().id()

The C code is rather simple and small. You can easily re-implement in
Python, too.
