The BSL is compatible with the GPL--the FSF has a page saying so--so
anything covered by the BSL can be used in a GPLed project.

As for legality, a license to one party on one set of terms does not
prohibit the copyright holder from licensing the works in question
under separate terms. (Though IANAL, of course.)
