I thought it must be something like that, but was "sure" there were no 
other version installed. But then I forced uninstalled my system sip and 
imported the sip module in an iteractive session - and got no 
ImportError! Thus sip.__file__ revealed the culprit lurking in:

     ~/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/sip.so

Sad to say it's not the first time I've been caught out by this (thanks 
pip), and it probably won't be the last :/
