Subject: [boost] Incompatible Boost license file in boost.container

Hi all,
I was looking at boost.container, and found that boost/container/deque.hpp
has similar problems as boost/detail/endian.hpp had before that was fixed.
Parts of deque.hpp seem to be covered by a license that is not compatible
with the Boost software license. I quote:
// Copyright (c) 1996,1997
// Silicon Graphics Computer Systems, Inc.
//
// Permission to use, copy, modify, distribute and sell this software
// and its documentation for any purpose is hereby granted without fee,
// provided that the above copyright notice appear in all copies and
// that both that copyright notice and this permission notice appear
// in supporting documentation.
Etc.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall
