I'm guessing that someone grabbed the "latest" source from the BOINC site and packaged the binary from that. 6.2.16+ only had changes to fix problems with the Windows version, and maybe OSX. The binary you get when you compile that for Linux is completely untested. Not alpha, not beta, not at all. If they introduced problems for other platforms, those won't get fixed until the next time they make a new Linux release.
