If the configuration files are changed to templates, the line

  #LocalSocket /tmp/clamd.socket

(which creates a security vulnerability) could become

  #LocalSocket @RUNSTATEDIR@/clamav/clamd.ctl

instead. That's not _completely_ configurable, but it's a secure
setting that could be used by everyone without patching.
