hello 
what is the result when clamav engine scan a broken file ?  
I  only know when clamav engine scan a broken   pe   file , the result depends 
on  scan options,
if scan options contain CL_SCAN_BLOCKBROKEN , result is CL_VIRUS, or else  
result is  CL_CLEAN.


for example : 
clamav-0.98\libclamav\pe.c  
if( ctx->options & CL_SCAN_BLOCKBROKEN  && !ctx->corrupted_input) 
{
    cli_append_virus(ctx,"Heuristics.Broken.Executable"); 
    return CL_VIRUS;
}


but , what is the result  when scan other broken  file( any except pe ) ?
is it still  depend on  scan options ?


I don't want  clamav engine regards  broken file as a virus.


I don't have enough time to confirm by reading source code, 
who can tell me , thanks
