6.2-Release and Clamd 0.90 with libpthread.so

[Martin Blapp]

Hi Daniel,

Any idea how I can track this down ?

It's rather easy to reproduce ...

fork() is only used in the functions daemonize() and in
virusaction(), which is used to call an external programm
if one is defined (I don't have one).

So fork() should only be called once during going to be
a background daemon.
