For the most part this looks OK, but I am not sure about this hunk:
diff --git a/Objects/typeobject.c b/Objects/typeobject.c
--- a/Objects/typeobject.c
+++ b/Objects/typeobject.c
@@ -3724,7 +3724,7 @@ add_methods(PyTypeObject *type, PyMethod
 descr = PyDescr_NewClassMethod(type, meth);
 }
 else if (meth->ml_flags & METH_STATIC) {
- PyObject *cfunc = PyCFunction_New(meth, NULL);
+ PyObject *cfunc = PyCFunction_New(meth, (PyObject*)type);
 if (cfunc == NULL)
 return -1;
 descr = PyStaticMethod_New(cfunc);
That may be a breaking change as existing code may rely on the 'None' behavior. In 
fact, this causes a unit test to fail with the patch applied:
[meadori@motherbrain cpython]$ ./python -m test test_descr
[1/1] test_descr
test test_descr failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/meadori/src/python/cpython/Lib/test/test_descr.py", line 1485, in test_staticmethods_in_c

sbt, have you been running the test suite before submitting patches? If not, then
please do.
