Yes, that is normal. It is a shortcoming of the NVIDIA CUDA driver for the Mac.
I'm afraid the information about downloading the CUDA driver is a bit subtle. There's a link on the BOINC download pages <http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php> and <http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php> that takes you to <http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/GPU_computing> which mentions that Mac users need to download a special CUDA driver. The BOINC message boards <http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/> are a good place for help and information on things like this.
