When I try to start boinc I get the following output:

2005-09-27 08:49:44 [SETI@home] Requesting 8640 seconds of work, returning 0 results
2005-09-27 08:49:45 [SETI@home] Scheduler request to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi succeeded
2005-09-27 08:49:45 [SETI@home] Message from server: platform 'i386-portbld-freebsd5.4' not found

Obviously the server doesn't like the platform string. Should I change it? What to?

You need to use the anonyomus platform mechanism. Described here :
