I haven't yet had to worry about it, but how is a release typically done that 
uses PyQt?  To include the dll and a pyqt build makes them a developer so 
that won't work.

In C++ I presume you would just statically compile the parts of qt that were 
necessary into your application?  Is there a way that you can statically 
compile the necessary parts of Qt into PyQt?  Even if that were so, it 
doesn't seem like that would stop them from using the parts that were 
compiled in should they install Python?
