Not that I am aware of - unless you mean a trademark issue on the name?

The patch doesn't use any CATIA code.

It wouldn't be a good idea to try and merge the Qt3 and Qt4 code so the choice 
is either...

qt4.QVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py

...or...

qt.Q4VTKRenderWindowInteractor.py

If you prefer the latter I can produce an alternate patch.

I prefer the former because...

- it minimises the changes to the existing VTK code

- it minimises the changes needed to user's applications when moving from 
PyQt3 to PyQt4.
