I'm sorry for my sloppy language. What I meant was that clamd goes away
after a scan initiated by Qmail-Scanner. However, it does not log
anything, so I'm not sure it really crashes.

Actually, it looks like I fixed it. There was an error message
about /proc/swaps having an unexpected file format. I therefore updated
the kernel and everything seems to be fine now. I assume there was a
discrepancy between my kernel and my base system. The disks I had
checked before and they were alright.
