Of course backports will work, but as you can see, it's a little behind volatile (current release is 0.95.3). If you have not considered volatile, I think it's worth a look. Its whole purpose in life is to make newer versions of a few programs (like clamav and spamassassin) available to a stable release. With lenny, the lenny volatile package source is now included in /etc/apt/sources.list when the system is installed. Who knows, maybe the problem you experienced was one of the reasons it's now included, considering that the version of clamav included in etch broke after some time.
