I had the same problem trying to get the milter to be able to write that
socket.
 I found that once I "fixed" the permissions on /var/run/ to be open to
clamav, sendmail complained of "unsafe" writeable directories, and
wouldn't start.
So I do this in my start scripts:

# start the clamav milter:
chmod 777 /var/run
/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -bloq /var/run/clmilter.sock
sleep 5
chmod 755 /var/run
#

-pat
