ClamAV goes to great lengths to keep virus databases compatible with
older versions of the software, and there has been no EOL announcement
for 0.98.z (which isn't *that* old). Where do you see that 0.98.7 is
not functional with the latest definitions?
As for an update, I am aware of the new version. Unfortunately, ClamAV
has not been keeping up with LLVM and the bundled copy predates
Win64/SEH support, so either we wait for someone to write a patch for
LLVM 3.7 compatibility, or I build a llvm3.5 package just for this.
Otherwise, I'd have to disable llvm (and hence JIT support) on at least
x86_64.
