Ok, but that is enough to add your copyright, isn't it?
I guess so yes, if it helps.
At least it helps to quash inspect failures ;-).
But it doesn't really change things for anyone evaluating that file from a legal perspective, since the SGI copyright remains (as it must).
I'm no lawyer but from my point of view it does make a difference. For example, the SGI license doesn't explicitly say that it doesn't give any warranty regarding non-infringement. The Boost license does. So it seems the SGI license is less "water-tight" and adding the Boost license makes things clearer for people evaluating the files.
