Good point. Finally I got the examples working on Windows, with OpenGL
2.0 used instead of ANGLE:
- installed Visual C++ 2010 Express
- installed Qt 5.4.0 [1]
- built SIP 4.16.4 [2] with "--platform win32-msvc2010"
- built PyQt 5.4 [3]

To complete the last step it was necessary to manually fix two SIP
files: sipQtNetworkQSslCertificate.cpp and sipQtSqlQSqlDriver.cpp
because identifiers importPKCS12, DBMSType and UnknownDBMS existed as
importPkcs12, DbmsType and UnknownDbms in Qt sources.

Thanks for help everyone.
