First thing to point out is that PyKDE only supports KDE v1.x which
means you must use Qt v1.x.

Second, as I understand it, RedHat 7.0 has a non-standard C++ compiler
which may be finding faults with the generated code. I may have a RH7
environment available in a couple of weeks in which case I should be
able to fix the problem.
