Is this still an issue with a modern BOINC version?
Yes it is:
[ 182s] RPMLINT report:
[ 182s] ===============
[ 185s] libboinc7.x86_64: W: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib64/libboinc_graphics2.so.7.8.2 exit@GLIBC_2.2.5
[ 185s] This library package calls exit() or _exit(), probably in a non-fork()
[ 185s] context. Doing so from a library is strongly discouraged - when a library
[ 185s] function calls exit(), it prevents the calling program from handling the
[ 185s] error, reporting it to the user, closing files properly, and cleaning up any
[ 185s] state that the program has. It is preferred for the library to return an
[ 185s] actual error code and let the calling program decide how to handle the
[ 185s] situation.
