Hi all,

clamav-0.75.1

I've few servers based on RH 6.0 ( or RH 5.0 ) in fact that's are Cobalt Raq 
3i servers. Because Cobalt Networks ( now Sun Microsystems ) set free license 
on that system, I've transfered all system ( binaries, usera accounts, all 
filesystems ) to the new platform ( Intel Pentuim III ) 

All software, compiled earlier and compiled on new platform 
( mysql,postgres,apache,etc. ) works fine.
Clamd with clamav-milter and clamscan works fine on old platform ( AMD-K6 ) on 
the new platform clamav compile fine, and start OK. But when I run freshclam 
it tries to download main.cvd and fails after few seconds with: "Illegal 
Instructions" When I get main.cvd and daily.cvd from other servers ( with an 
old architecture ) clamd doesn't start at all. When I try to strace clamd I 
can see that it reads main.cvd and crash with "illegal instructions". So 
after all it seems that problem is in main/daily.cvd 

I've read earlier posts with title: "Illegal Instructions" and probably there 
is a problem with pentium optimization, optimization is probably used when I 
compile clamav and is not in some system libraries. 
My question is: Can I compile clamav without pentium optimization, some flags 
to gcc to compile it as on 386 processor ?
I've made some test: Configure, and compile clamav on old platform ( AMD-K6 ) 
and move everything on intel, and then "make install" - but no change :( 
freshclam fails when downloading main.cvd, clamd fails when I copy new 
main.cvd manually.

I'm trying to run new clamav because so far I was using clamav-0.54 with 
amavis, but for a month old clamav can't update virus databases, because 
format has changed. I would like migrate from amavis-milter to clamav-milter 
because clamav is faster. Anyway, now I can't use clamav antivirus with my 
servers and I can't go back to old architecture (AMD-K6) because of 
performance. 

Any advice, maybe recompile some system  libraries, but which one?
And maybe some signatures in main.cvd is fatal for old libraries ( freshclam 
crash when downloading main.cvd and clamd crash when reading main.cvd )

thanks for help, sorry for my english ;)
Marek
