[vtkusers] about SIP python bindings

[Lic. José M. Rodriguez Bacallao]

yes I saw SIP_INCLUDE_DIR and pointed it to my sip.h dir but when I
build, I get an error pointing that there is no such file or
directory. Also, I have my own version of PyQt build against my own
version of sip (PyQt 4.7.7 and SIP 4.11.1). This is because I use dip
which need PyQt >= 4.7.7. So, my thinking is that cmake is not finding
the correct version of sip and its path (the only one installed in the
system right now)
