Qt 4.4.1 is VERY old (and in fact Ipe 7 never worked perfectly with Qt
4.4 - see the install.txt).

Before you can upgrade Qt, you could try to change the
PathView::sizeHint() in src/ipe/appui.cpp. If you make the width
smaller, it might fit in the space that Qt somehow gives it and become
usable (though ugly).
You could also try to comment out the line:
lo->setSizeConstraint(QLayout::SetFixedSize);
in the same file.
