I meant that this problem arised noly after an update with freshclam

I performed the required test and I found out that the problem is not
there anymore. Basically I definitevely had this problem with the
snapshot release clamav-20030613. After a force reload I had these log
entries:
SelfCheck: Database modification detected. Forcing reload.
Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav
while with the currently installed 0.60 I have also
Database correctly reloaded (8736 viruses)
after the previous 2 lines.
The only modification I make to the ditributions are the patches
contained in the OpenBSD unofficial port. I don't use the port system
but just untar the file and apply the patch to the original
distribution. The patches contained in 33-clamav-20030613.tgz worked for
both 0.60 and clamav-20030613. Sorry about the lack of details on the
version of clamav installed and by the way how safe is to install a
snapshot version on a production site?
