report it just like you did above...if the packager has questions, he'll
ask but I would suggest that you file it against NetworkManager package.
It's important to work out all of the issues with NetworkManager to
solve them once and for all.

I reported it as a bug. Just got the following reply:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453317
"Boinc is probably starting so soon after NetworkManager that the
network is not up yet. It's technically a bug in Boinc that it doesn't
wait for a network connection and periodically re-try to send/grab the
data. But for the moment, you can add the line:
NETWORKWAIT=yes
to /etc/sysconfig/network and startup will block for 10 seconds or until
a network connection is up, whichever is sooner."
I added the suggested line, because it probably covers all instances of
shutdowns, crashes etc. whereas the rc.local solution only works with a
normal clean startup.
Thanks all.
