Jord sent me the email below and I have opened issue #1909 for it. The original poster to the forum wrote that the problem occurs in BOINC Manager version 7.6.20 and later, but not in 7.6.18. since I had saved the source trees for versions 7.6.18 and 7.6.21, I compared these and found the following differences which would affect the manager:
in clientgui/BOINCGUIApp.cpp, .h: added call to wxhandleFatalExceptions() in CBOINCGUIApp::OnInit() added new OnFatalException() method in lib/gui_rpc_client_ops.cpp, .h: added support for "platform" entry in RESULT::parse() added result->platform argument to lookup)app_version() call in CC_STATE::parse() added suport for "platform" entry in CC_STATE::lookup_app_version() I suspect the changes in gui_rpc_client_ops.cpp may be the problem, since (I presume) the older remote clients he is trying to manage don't have this field and I don't see any provision in the newer RPC code to deal with this situation.
