And I propose the attached patch, which clarifies the error messages 
(especially the message displayed when the first "make" compilation fails) and 
disable "-q" under Windows (where it does not work anyway).

Sample session with the patch:

[E:\pyqt\PyQt-win-gpl-4-snapshot-20070710]configure.py

Error: Make sure you have a working Qt v4 qmake on your PATH

Make sure your compiler is installed correctly and you have a working "nmake"
on your PATH

(If you have another version of Visual Studio or Visual C++ installed and wish
to use its tools from the command line, run vcvars32.bat for that version.)
