I can confirm this fix works (Skip and gfarmerfr combined)
file: /etc/init.d/boinc-client
----
start()
{
log_begin_msg "Starting $DESC: $NAME"
if is_running; then
log_progress_msg "already running"
else
xhost local:boinc
sleep 5
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --pidfile $PIDFILE \
--make-pidfile --user $BOINC_USER --chuid $BOINC_USER \
--chdir $BOINC_DIR --exec $BOINC_CLIENT -- $BOINC_OPTS
fi
log_end_msg 0

I think a user always needs to be logged in for BOINC to gain access to
xorg. Maybe not the best fix, but better than nothing.
