It is a problem that I've reproduced with the system packages on Gentoo
and Debian testing.  I haven't done any manual build/install of Qt, sip or
PyQt4 on both of them.  Both provide the same version of PyQt4 (4.11.1) and
sip (4.16.2).

Unforunately, I don't know how to solve that (except for removing the system
packages).
