Yep, BOS is the only private terminal I've been to that has an actual TSA screening station. Maybe because the 9/11 planes left from there? Also a related factoid is that you can't land at DCA private unless you have an armed guard on the plane, so that's why all the private flights are out of IAD, which is much less convenient.
To sum it up, my experience is: any private flight out of BOS is screened by TSA, any shuttle out of HPN/VNY is sort of luggage screened, and pretty much everywhere else has nothing. At least that's my experience so far.
