I'm experiencing the same trouble running a similar setup: OpenBSD3.3,
Postfix, amavisd-new-20030314-p2 (running chrooted), spamassassin, clamd

What I noticed is that the problem occurs after a db update via
freshclam. 
Basically after a successful update clamd checks itself and the db for
updates (by default every 3600 sec). Then it detect the change a write
in the log:

        SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload.
        Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav

The problem is that the system doesn't give any additional sign of
disorder but actually doesn't restart properly because the socket file
is not properly deleted and restarted when the clamd restarts. If then
you kill the daemon, delete the socket file and restarts the daemon then
it restarts nicely and works again.
I hope this info will help developers to fix the problem. Meanwhile I'm
trying to work it out using the optional script that freshclam can run
after a successful db update.
