I think this is a bug. These bound methods can't be equal because they 
have different side effect.

The use case for using "is" for __self__ is described by the OP of 
issue1617161. I don't know use cases for using "==".

There is a related problem of hashing. Currently
bound methods are not hashable if __self__ is not hashable. This makes 
impossible using them as dict keys.
