Looks good here:

1: 09-May-2020 14:48:47 (low) [] Starting BOINC client version 7.9.3 for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
15: 09-May-2020 14:48:48 (low) [] VirtualBox version: 6.1.4r136177

Of course all the machines now use systemd.

To find out if anything is different for sysvinit I installed a Devuan
Ceres VM which also seems to work. In this case the startup script
follows the Virtualbox startup script. Older (including stable) releases
of Devuan use older packages so they may still have an issue. I looked
at Devuan's bug system but:

“There is no maintainer for boinc-client. This means that this package
no longer exists (or never existed). Please do not report new bugs
against this package.”

Additionally, Virtualbox isn't in the repos for the previous Devuan
release (or the one before that - I can't remember), but all this is up
to Devuan.

Looking good here.

(Sorry for the incredibly slow reply)
