Hi! As I had pretty much no idea about how timestamping works over HTTP I took a look at wget's code and compared it to freshclam's code. It seems that the "Last-Modified" header is not checked for and evaluated in freshclam. Conversely, wget reads that header and uses its value to touch the file appropriately.
As you're already using a workaround using sigtool I wonder whether you would still like to see this fixed or don't care anymore. Best, Michael
