No. After all, this is a "bug" (if you can be that harsh) with clamscan.

Note that the same thing happens with all other AV vendor products too -
there will always be false positives.

The fix (as with all AV products) is to notify the "vendor" and wait until
they fix it.

Of course the user could put the file in a password-protected zip file...
