Humm, It was not my intention to package PyQt4 in the Windows installer.

Quite frankly, I will mostly likely rerun the package step and make sure
that those site-packages are not included. Regardless, nothing in ParaView
uses PyQt. I had it built on my system when I was building the VisTrails
plugin for the 3.6.2 release.
