Since an IRA would not traditionally pay taxes, I can't find anything that says you can claim a credit for taxes paid by the IRA. Since the funds are paid to the IRA net of taxes, I don't see where you could later gross up the withdrawal for the foreign taxes paid.

For example, if your IRA earned $100 in dividends, and $25 was withheld for foreign taxes. The IRA would then only have $75 available to pay you, which would be your withdrawal. Since you're withdrawing the after-tax amount you couldn't claim the $25 credit.
