Are you sure that sip.h is in /tmp/yifli/include?  And not in
/tmp/yifli/include/python2.6?

Note that setting SIP_INCLUDE_DIR might not help if sip.h is already
somewhere else in the include path.  For example, if the "wrong" sip.h
is in /usr/include then there might not be any easy way to get CMake
to use your sip.h.  Having multiple versions of sip.h on your system
can be a difficult issue to fix.

Then I hope that you run "df -k" every so often to make sure that you
aren't filling up the system disk.
