Perhaps the example conf files should use/suggest a better location.
debian uses (/var)/run/clamav/ for this.
the default is I guess specified by --runstatedir, which is default
--localstatedir /run , where --localstatedir is by default /var
if you change the defaults, it's better to know why and how

Off-topic: you shouldn't use /tmp for the clamd socket, or anything else
with a predictable name (that's why all the other tmp.* files have
"random" names). Anyone on the machine can create (and thus own) that
file after the machine reboots, leading to security issues.
