Thanks Andreas! I see it. It seems it occurs with just the `—datadir /any/path` 
option (config-file and version options not necessary). We'll fix it.

Thanks so much for testing the 1.5 rc\ and reporting issues.

Respectfully,
Val

Hello,

today, I did a first build of 1.5.0-rc

still, there are many compile time warnings. mostly "unused variables"
looks very similar to my report on 1.5.0-beta 
(https://andreasschulze.de/tmp/clamav-1.5.0-beta.buildwarnings.txt)

one first issue, a segfault:

-> the good case
# freshclam --version --config-file /dev/null
ClamAV 1.5.0-rc

-> the bad case
# install -d /empty/
#freshclam --version --config-file /dev/null --datadir /empty/
Segmentation fault

-> same result, if --datadir point to a directory with just downloaded 
signatures

# find /var/lib/clamav/ -ls

Segmentation fault

more tests later ...
