Make certain that either the old libraries/binaries are deleted or
overwritten.  Lots of folks have problems because the binaries have
ended up in different parts of the search path and sometimes an old one
pops up instead of the current one.

If it were me, I'd do a make uninstall for 0.65 first, then a make
install for 0.74.  Since I've got an RPM based system now, it does that
for me, but when building form source that's the cleanest way to make
certain you don't have any 0.65 flotsam lying about.

Always run freshclam after the upgrade before you start the mail daemon!
