[PyQt] Support for std::?

[Shaheed Haque]

Sorry, not sure how the word "syntax" crept in there, I intended to
just say "errors". But I'm not sure I follow your second sentence:
there is no SIP definition of std::exception, so the "lack of a
definition" part is not surprising. Are you saying that just adding a
%MappedType will suppress the "or the type"? I tried both:

%MappedType std::exception
{
}

and

%MappedType Akonadi::Exception
{
}

but both resulted in "sip: tmp/AkonadiCore/Exception.sip:62: A class,
exception, namespace or mapped type has already been defined with the
same name". What have I missed?
