I use auditwheel for the sip module wheels but not for the PyQt wheels. 
The real problem isn't the incorrect manylinux tag, it's that the module 
requires (for no good reason) a newer glibc.

I don't know if gcc has a flag which says compile for a particular 
version of glibc (both macOS and Windows do have something similar).
