Finally got back to this. Indeed the issue was a different header being
included. I had (evidently) accidentally installed sip 4.14.0 in the Mac
System path before (I usually prefix to /usr/local).

However, I did notice an issue when configuring/installing PyQt4, where it
did not seems to honor the configured .sip dest dir.

sip build configure:
python2.7 configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages \
  -b /usr/local/bin -e /usr/local/include -v /usr/local/share/sip

PyQt4 build configure:
python2.7 configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages \
  -b /usr/local/bin -n /usr/local/Qt4.8/qsci

The .sip files for PyQt4 were placed in:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/share/sip/PyQt4
not:
/usr/local/share/sip/PyQt4

specifically adding the following to the PyQt4 build configure line worked:
-v /usr/local/share/sip/PyQt4

This was with both configure.py and configure-ng.py. Shouldn't the .sip
dest dir be picked up from sip as a default for building PyQt4?
