Cool. It's bug 3721.

Cheers,

P.S.: I don't understand mixin's well enough, so this might be a silly
       question: if I use it in my application, then the method is added to
       every object in my application? Or could a mixin just have a "local"
       effect on the objects of a specific class (e.g., only in those
       classes, where I have a need for bind())?
