[PyQt] Problem with configiring PyQt4,7 on mac os 10.6

[Jan Haag]

Depending on the Hardware you have it may also make sense to use the  
latest Cocoa-build of
Qt on Mac, as it has full 64bit support; Look around on Qt's download  
page, they also have a
32bit-only Carbon build. As far as I know, there is no significant  
difference in functionality,
but the Cocoa-builds work better on Mac 10.6 as gcc per default  
outputs 64bit executables.
