Ok. I tried to prepare a patch but encountered a problem.

PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_DIR was always an absolute path
PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_INSTALL_DIR is a relative path

which breaks lines like these:

INSTALL(
	CODE "EXECUTE_PROCESS(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} 
		 -DTARGET=${PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_INSTALL_DIR}/PyQt4/uic/pykdeuic4.py 
		-DLINK_NAME=${BIN_INSTALL_DIR}/pykdeuic4 -P ${cmake_module_dir}/create_exe_symlink.cmake)" 
)

Why is PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_INSTALL_DIR a relative path anyway? I have never seen those in cmake 
before. Do we have to fix create_exe_symlink.cmake or do we have to make the var absolute?
