New upstream release with security fixes.  Here is the upstream NEWS:

ClamAV 0.98.6 is a bug fix release correcting the following:

    - library shared object revisions.
    - installation issues on some Mac OS X and FreeBSD platforms.
    - includes a patch from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior making
      ClamAV pid files compatible with systemd.
    - Fix a heap out of bounds condition with crafted Yoda's
      crypter files. This issue was discovered by Felix Groebert
      of the Google Security Team.
    - Fix a heap out of bounds condition with crafted mew packer
      files. This issue was discovered by Felix Groebert of the
      Google Security Team.
    - Fix a heap out of bounds condition with crafted upx packer
      files. This issue was discovered by Kevin Szkudlapski of
      Quarkslab.
    - Fix a heap out of bounds condition with crafted upack packer
      files. This issue was discovered by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.
      CVE-2014-9328.
    - Compensate a crash due to incorrect compiler optimization when
      handling crafted petite packer files. This issue was discovered
      by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.

The diff is huge and I didn't see a reasonable way to reduce it (I'll try if I
must), but I don't think it's a productive use of time for me to produce it or
you to review it.  I'll attach it in a follow-on to the bug so that this one
makes it to the list.
