It does if you pass the --daemon-notify= argument right?

something like this should work...
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Socket;
use strict;
my $clamd = shift || '/tmp/clamd';
socket(SOCK, PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) || die "socket: $!\n";
connect(SOCK, sockaddr_un($clamd)) || die "connect: $!\n";
send(SOCK, "RELOAD", 6) || die "send: $!\n";
recv(SOCK, my $buf, 20, 6) || die "recv: $!\n";
($buf eq "RELOADING\n") and print "Database successfully reloaded\n" or
print "Error reloading database\n";
exit 0;
