I tried the same and it worked for me too - I just did (in my netqmail-1.05 src dir): (I had latest toaster already installed and working for some weeks): cd /var/src/netqmail-1.05/netqmail-1.05 make clean patch < /path/to/custom.patch make qmailctl stop make setup check then in /var/src/simscan-1.1 make clean ./configure (added --enable-custom-smtp-reject=y) make make install-strip and now when I send an infected message to one of my email addresses I get this in my bounce messages (for example): Remote host said: 554 Your email was rejected because it contains the Eicar-Test-Signature virus Very cool!
