As I wrote earlier, I'm working on screensaver fixes for compatibility with Mac 
OS 10.13 High Sierra. But it will be a few more days or a week before that is 
ready for testing, so don't hold off on 7.10 for that. I'll merge it into both 
master and the branch after the pull request is approved.

I likely will also want to merge these into a hot-fix version 7.8.3 for Mac 
only with the screensaver changes before 7.10 is ready for public release, 
since OS 10.13 is set for public release on September 25.

At the same time, I will be submitting a tech support request tonight with 
Apple asking if there is a better way to fix the problem than the one I have 
been working on. Ideal of course would be a fix that does not require any 
changes to the project graphics apps, but I'm not too hopeful for that. 

(As I wrote before, I expect the fix I am currently working on to only require 
the projects to rebuild their existing graphics apps with the new libraries 
that I will supply; no changes to the project's code should be needed. It will 
of course also involve changes to the BOINC screensaver coordinator included 
with the BOINC Mac installer.)

Cheers,
--Charlie
