If your converter is doing exactly the same work as the other one simply don't
register it.

If they are doing different things you have a problem because Boost.Python's
type conversion registry is global. This is an essential feature. Otherwise
bindings established by module A could not be used in module B and vice versa
(this is actually how early versions of Boost.Python used to work).

Hm, I guess the situation is similar to, say, assigning IP addresses. There has
to be some kind of protocol that everybody has to adhere to in order to avoid
conflicts.
