Subject: [boost] copied boost files in other projects

I encountered some projects that have copied files from boost and replaced
the copyright and license notice by their own. Other projects have added
their own license (for isntance MIT, LGPL ...) beside the Boost license
notice in the copied files - does this mean that the code is dual licensed
now?.

How does the boost community deal with this?
