copying classes?

Hi all,

In the documentation of module 'copy' it is said that "This version
does not copy types like module, class, function, method, stack trace,
stack frame, file, socket, window, array, or any similar types."

Does anyone know another way to (deep)copy objects of type class? What
is special about the objects of these types that they cannot be easily
copied?

Any help appreciated,
