I can't reproduce this on my system, so I need more info from you. To what 
projects are you attached? To what project does the task belong that the 
BOINC client is trying to resume? Did you upgraded your system yesterday?

Could you please shutdown all running BOINC clients (killall boinc && killall 
boinc_client) and start boinc in an empty directory. Does is start then 
without crashing?

Grüße,
Frank
