Well, my educated guess is it's because PyQt4 is being compiled with VS2010, but the Python binaries are all compiled under VS2008. I've had issues before trying to use sip/PyQt4 compiled with VS2010, with Python compiled with 2008, in that strings would end up being blank or having odd crashes going from C++ to Python.
To keep it short, I do not recommend you mix dlls created with VS2010 with Python built under VS2008, it has tended to cause issues at least for me.
