I think this may solve the mystery why for some apparently unknown
reason random people were unable to connect to the socket. It appeared
to be a permission problem but may have been they were not waiting
long enough for the socket to get created. I noticed this on one of my
systems where it took a couple minutes after starting clamd for the
socket to get created. Since upgrading to the latest version, I could
not reproduce this behavior.
