It appears I spoke too soon when I made hopeful noises that clamav-milter 0.60q and the new clamd had addressed the problem with runaway milter processes.
Running ClamAV 0.65 with clamav-milter 0.60q, it still goes wrong when the database reloads:- Nov 14 11:31:18 castor clamd[20571]: SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload.
