sorry, but i don't have any hints. however, the problem does not occur 
on my current set-up:

Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Dec  2 2010, 03:10:07)
[GCC 4.5.1 20101125 (prerelease)] on linux2

 >>> from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
 >>> QtCore.PYQT_VERSION_STR
'4.8.1'
 >>> import uuid
 >>> uuid.uuid4()
UUID('894b501b-5f3a-424e-a0cc-b57555fd64f3')
 >>>

the only obvious difference is the gcc version.
