I just upgraded two Macs running OSX 10.8.2 to BOINC 7.0.31. Both of these machines have only one user (me) and the user has admin privileges. When the new version starts, I get the following message:
'You currently are not authorized to manage the client. To run BOINC as this user please reinstall BOINC answering 'Yes' to the question about non-administrative users or contact your administrator to add you to the 'boinc_master' user group'.

The install didn't ask me the question about non-administrative users.

What to do?

Thanks.

Further to my previous post: I have discovered that re-installing the 7.0.31 update solves the problem.
