Cgpav works with clamd, is clamd running? is the socket accessible to cgpav (ownership and permission)? A better test than the one you are using is using clamdscan; clamscan detecting the virus doesn't simulate what cgpav does. > Everything was rebuilt from source and yet it still has this problem.

"Everything" means clamav and cgpav? are both configurations aligned (i.e. clamd creates the socket that cgpav expects to use)? cgpav goes into failure mode if it cannot communicate with clamd, failure mode means it says OK to everything when (from doc) "... timeout while virus scanning, anti-virus or anti-spam daemon is not responding", but it's not only an "1 OK" response, it does complain about not being able to comminicate with clamd. So it looks like you have not configured cgpav at all, the initial configuration to compile it should use (at least) --with-antivirus=clamav --with-cgpro-home=... whatever, and the file cgpav.conf should be also properly configured.
