You were absolutely right. QtGui wasn't linked. But SIP still throw an 
error - sip: Q_PID is undefined. So i add SIP platform tag -t WS_X11.
It wasn't working too - sip: QFileIconProvider is undefined, but after 
extra modification:

$ /usr/bin/sip -c . -I/usr/share/sip -t WS_X11 -t Qt_4_7_2  -b hello.sbf 
hello.sip
$ g++ -c -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -DNDEBUG -I. -I/usr/include/python2.7 
-I/usr/include/QtGui -I/usr/include/QtCore -o siphellocmodule.o 
siphellocmodule.cpp
$ g++ -c -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -DNDEBUG -I. -I/usr/include/python2.7 
-I/usr/include/QtGui -I/usr/include/QtCore -o siphellohello.o 
siphellohello.cpp
$ g++ -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed -shared 
-Wl,--version-script=hello.exp -o hello.so siphellocmodule.o 
siphellohello.o

I've got: undefined symbol: _ZN5hello9loadImageEP6QImage.I found out 
that I've only declared loadImage. So after all it works fine. Thank you 
for help.
