Works for me in 3.0:
Python 3.1a0 (py3k:69082, Jan 28 2009, 19:22:10) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> class Foo(object):
... def bar(self):
... print(self.attr)
...
>>> class Duck(object):
... attr = 3.14
...
>>> Foo.bar(Duck())
3.14
