Because of this clause from the Boost license page:

material that goes with the library. A different implementation
is free to use the same logical interface, however. Interface
issues have been fought out in court several times; ask a lawyer
for details."
I suspect that an automatic translation might be subject to the
"representation" issue, while a manual rewrite should not.
I see, that sucks :(. I guess this is a fine line since you very well
could en up with the same result of a manual and automatic translation.
