It needs to be a per-user path because we do allow multiple instances (one per active user) during fast user switching on the Mac. I'm not sure what happens on Windows, perhaps Rom can say. All the per-user BOINC Manager files (stdoutgui.txt, stderrscr.txt, etc.) on the Mac go in "~/Library/Application Support/BOINC", which is the Mac convention for user-specific files created by applications, so this seems like a reasonable place to put the lock file.
