Hi Phil,

Actually, after testing it on a clean Windows VM, I found out that this
missing DLL issue was not entirely related to the new PyQt release. PyQt
examples are indeed all working well (BTW, your "example launcher" is very
good-looking!).
However, this missing DLL error occurs every time you launch scripts using
matplotlib objects embedded in PyQt 4.4.2 GUIs. So I guess that the
matplotlib Qt4 backend is not compatible with PyQt 4.4.x. I will post on
matplotlib mailing list about this.

Anyway, I'll have to wait until this bug is corrected to update Python(x,y)
distro.

Thanks,
Pierre
