Client Errors when throtteling

(moderation:
Apparently some people get Client Errors when they turn on CPU throtteling ("Use at most than ... of CPU time"). These Client Errors have exit status -226 (TOO MANY EXITS) and lots of "Can't acquire lockfile - exiting" messages in stderr_out.
To further track down this problem we made a Windows Application that produces some additional diagnostic output in stderr_out (actaully lots when you have throtteling turned on).
If you encounter this problem, please run this Application first without changing your settings (anonymous platform - download the archive, open it, drop all the files into the project folder and restart BOINC), so we can figure out what's happening. For fast feedback, please report Tasks finished with this Application (in particular in case of a Client Error) to the server manually.
Thanks in advance,

Thank you very much! I'm discussing this with the BOINC developers.

Apparently someone did this - see Too many exits (was: No finished file). He didn't stop BOINC, but at least computing activity.
