So, if you emerge schedutils, one of the binaries you get is called
taskset.  Once it's emerged, you can read the notes on taskset in /usr/
share/doc/schedutils-*/README.bz2, and/or the taskset manpage.  It's
pretty simple, to use, however.  For example, on a two-core or two-CPU
system (CPU0 and CPU1), setting an already running X to run on CPU0 only,
on CPU1 only, or on both, is done with the following commands (the number
being a CPU bitmask, obviously):

taskset -p 1 `pidof X`
taskset -p 2 `pidof X`
taskset -p 3 `pidof X`

The problem with that is that the boinc client starts a new thread for every work unit.

I've noticed the same problem and I think that it should be up to boinc to set that up properly
