I'm happy with the idea, but I'd like to see it done differently...

- a flag that explicitly specifies the directory containing the Qt library 
(like the -i flag for Qt header files or the -o flag for the QScintilla 
library)

- a separate flag that explicitly specifies the directory where the PyQt 
modules will be installed

- I tend to avoid upper case flags because Windows is case insensitive. (Or am 
I showing my age here?)
