i've no idea, but 0.84 does.
i've just found a solution. if clamd makes clamd.log it's useless to change the permissions. so before running clamd and so on i made touch clamd.log and than set all the permissions that is needed. now it works.

why is that? if i'll restart clamd it won't going to change the permissions of clamd.log. and by the way i don't need any log rotation because my clamd.log doesn't eveê become big or something like that.
Maybe thats because clamav couldnt write to it ;) Regardless, this is a workaround not a solution. The logfile should not be created with root owner to begin with.
