And it's super confusing. I have seen many people install BOINC on Linux and 
then try to attach a project with "boinc --attach_project", which will either 
fail and give strange errors due to multiple client instances (especially if 
using a distro package that auto-starts the client after installation and on 
boot), or succeed and make a mess out of whatever directory they ran it from, 
usually their home directory.

I would remove those options entirely. Or at least call them debugging options 
and remove them from any documentation or --help a user may see.
