Obviously, which leaves me with the choice.

1. Whine on the ML and hope I get what I need.
Hasn't happened yet, isn't going to. ( the getting what I need part. )
:-)

2. Do brain surgery with a chainsaw, to get what I need.
Because the REAL SURGEONS have higher priorities.

Here's the complete butchers bill.
Clamav-milter   http://www.cmpublishers.com/oss/clamfi.c
Clamd           http://www.cmpublishers.com/oss/others.c
Freshclam       http://www.cmpublishers.com/oss/execute.c

So, what did I gain?
1. A ClamAV installation that doesn't use the shell to handle external events.
Which aCaB pointed out is more secure.

2. A common execution environment.
Which I have wanted since bug 1754.

So, what did I lose?
1. %v functionality
Which I'll fire up my chainsaw and fix if the real surgeons don't show up.

In summary, I'm not the person to be doing this job, but somebody needs to.
