Hmm, it seems I did so inadvertently; Debian's clamav-daemon uses a
different location for the clamd socket so I set the location in the
Debian config file, not noticing that setting a socket location also had
the effect of turning on the watchdog function. I guess I will revert
this then.

I'm wondering if the next version of clamav-unofficial-sigs should just
use clamconf to get relevant paths (clamd_socket, clamd_pid, clam_dbs)
and have a more explicitly named option clamd_check_status to enable the
clamd checks.
