David, thanks for cleaning the exit status formatting - that will make it much
easier to track down the true meaning of these messages.
Rom - I've made a private build to see if catching the 0xC26B case with a
'will_restart' exit helps. The exit status isn't new - Google searches find
tasks at sztaki dated January 2014, and CPDN dated August 2013, still unpurged.
Both those machines are currently running Windows 7, as were the majority of
the machines discussed in the SETI message board thread.
One additional problem reveals itself in my build from Head - every Event Log
message is escaped, like

[boinc_dev] BOINC exit status numbers
BOINC reports and displays exit status on the user web, typically, in a
negative 64-bit hexadecimal format. Today's trending number is
0xc26b
as in http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=4947399120:
Exit status -1073741205 (0xc26b) Unknown error number
If you Google the 64-bit Hex version of the error number, the results you get
are, exclusively, BOINC task pages or BOINC message board discussions, like
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=79695. But Windows error
numbers are conventionally represented as 32-bit positive Hex numbers, which
leads us to a very simple understanding.
0xC26BSTATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED_LOGOFF{DLL Initialization Failed}
The application failed to initialize because the window station is shutting
down.
Unless other operating systems require 64-bit error numbers (or Microsoft has
indicated an intention to switch to 64-bit numbers in the future), could we use
a 32-bit reporting format, please?
