This light fixture is in a boiler room. The clearance between the bulb and top of the door is about 1/8". Is there a violation here?

Violation? No.

I'd recommend switching to a CFL and adding a cage to the socket for safety reasons and energy conservation

I'd tell the buyer to keep extra bulbs on hand and leave it at that.

tell the homeowner to wear a helmet when the humidity goes above 60% cause once that door expands a little, BAM goes the light bulb when the door is opened into it.
