On my Mandrake-10.0 two steps are needed to make PyKDE-3.11.3 work
with sip-4.1 and recent snapshots:

(1) before running configure: patch PyKDE to replace all 0200 by 0300
    in the handwritten code (see attachment, it also fixes another minor
    glitch).

(2) before running make: fix a few return statements in the sip generated
    code. The following perl statement does that for me (sorry for the
    formatting -- you can get it from the attached pykde.spec file):

perl -pi.after -e
's|QIconView::selectionMode\(\)|KFile::SelectionMode(QIconView::selectionMode())|g;
s|QListView::selectionMode\(\)|KFile::SelectionMode(QListView::selectionMode())|g'
kfile/sipkfilepart*.cpp

I do not think that the casts to KFile::SelectionMode are save (the enum
names do not translate to the same numbers between Qt and KDE), but if they
are not save  it is probably a problem of KDE and not sip-4.1.

Try to skip step (2) if your KDE is newer than 3.20.
