ClamAV's PhishingScanURLs regex code runs afoul of the Solaris regex library; for now, the workaround is either to compile using PCRE, or to disable the PhishingScanURLs option in clamd.conf.

I experienced the same symptoms in 0.91.1, and to a lesser extent in 0.91.2; I disabled the PhishingScanURLs option, and clamd has been humming along nicely ever since.
