Check out
https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-devel/blob/master/docs/signatures.pdf,
section 3.2.4.

You should be able to write something like:

!(not)badfunction(


FYI, PCRE support is coming in ClamAV 0.99. There is a release candidate
here if you want to try it: http://www.clamav.net/downloads

Finally, consider sharing your signature with the community, if possible:

Thanks,
