Subject: You can move a method from one instance to another within the same class hiarachy.

You can take a method from one instance and move it to another instance
with

me = cls.method(:mymthd)    <== get hold of the method
unbnd = me.unbind               <== unbind it from the class
newinst = NewClass.new       <== create instance of a subclass of cls
unbnd.bind(newinst).call         <== bind the method to the instance of
NewClass

I know it isn't copying it but is shows the mobility of unbound
methods. Not sure if you can  copy it while it is an unbound method?
