Hi, all--

I assumed that the use of clamav was negotiated by Apple and Clamav and that there would have been some direct contact. The Apple boards of full of users with dead mail servers.
MacOS X 10.4.11 was released in Nov 2007, so that particular revision is about three years old. You're right that Tiger/10.4.0 was released almost exactly 5 years ago and is at EOL.
If you want to rebuild a newer ClamAV using similar paths to what Apple provided, please consider:

...however, the PR28045 bug in the compiler should have been fixed with newer releases of XCode (which should take you up to gcc-4.2.1, which works well with the new LLVM bytecode stuff in clamav-0.96), so you should be able to use -O2 directly.

PS: You can also file bug reports about this issue with https://bugreport.apple.com. I would imagine that providing an update to at least ClamAV v0.95.4 is on someone's radar screen, but it doesn't hurt to encourage 'em.
