It seems that there's incompatibility between some recent sip and pyqt releases.
See this ticket for a very similar problem:
http://trac.osgeo.org/qgis/ticket/1641

Are you sure you're using sip 4.7.9? Because the error you're getting
suggests you're running sip < 4.7.8.
I have sip 4.7.9 on my system with pyqt 4.4.4 and it works fine.
