I’m unable to replicate your findings:

~/Downloads/2016-05-16/eicar.txt: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND

Taking a look at the current daily.cld I see entries in both ignore sections:

daily.ign1374002516fake:1:Dont_remove_this_line
...
main:42:Win.Trojan.Trojan-605

daily.ign21072002573fake_dont_remove_this_line
...
Win.Trojan.Trojan-605

I wonder if it’s engine specific?  Are you using 0.99.x
