It is locked to 1 for true/false questions. Surely that is the only logical setting there.

Search for 'penalty' in http://cvs.moodle.org/moodle/question/type/edit_question_form.php?view=markup&pathrev=MOODLE_19_STABLE. You will see that the default is hard-coded to 0.1. There is special code in truefalse to override that, but nowhere else, I think.
