That's great news!
Regarding the armhf problem: Have you filed a gcc bug report?
Regarding the other patch: Making function parameters const is technically
an API change, which is not really nice to do in a Debian-only patch.
On the other hand these const problems can be worked around with casts,
so maybe it would be better to add some casts to clamav?
It would also be useful to check what other programs using tomsfastmath
in Debian expect.

Best regards,
Andreas
