In SIP 4.2 enums are implemented as distinct types rather than integers so
that they nehave the same as they do in C++. After doing the addition, the
type of the above expression is integer, but it should be Type. Replace it
with, something like, the following.

    StatusChangeType = qt.QEvent.Type(qt.QEvent.User + 10)

The exception message looks wrong - I will check that.
