Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

The test should be a real unittest in Lib/test/test_copy, not something
in the __main__ section of Lib/copy.py. Nobody runs these, as a matter
of fact if you run Lib/copy.py under the py3k branch it fails.

To nitpick a bit, I also think Michael's test above was better, since it
was checking whether the copied method actually worked.
