You will have to create a function that will set the variable. Put something 
like the following in (for example)...

void set_simple_timers(bool);
%MemberCode
    int s;

    if (sipParseArgs(&sipArgsParsed,sipArgs,"i",&s)
    {
        Q_EXPORT extern bool qt_win_use_simple_timers;

        qt_win_use_simple_timers = s;

        Py_INCREF(Py_None);
        return Py_None;
    }
%End
