I'm on a Mandrake 9.1 system using clamav-milter with sendmail and about
once a day I find the following:

1) Clamd has died and left itself like this

 6162 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/sbin/clamd LESSKEY=/etc/.less LC_MONETARY=
 6166 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [clamd <defunct>]
 6167 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/sbin/clamd LESSKEY=/etc/.less LC_MONETARY=

  instead of the normal

24655 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/sbin/clamd LESSKEY=/etc/.less LC_MONETARY=
24659 ?        S      0:00  \_ /usr/local/sbin/clamd LESSKEY=/etc/.less LC_MONET
24667 ?        S      0:00      \_ /usr/local/sbin/clamd LESSKEY=/etc/.less LC_M

2) Sendmail is rejecting all incoming mail

  Sep 2 21:54:40 mxa sendmail[24476]: h834nenC024476: Milter (clmilter): to error state

3) The clamd log file shows the following about 6:30, the time I think it died.  I
   caught it at about 10:00 and restarted everything.

  I'm not finding a core file anyplace, and over the weekend I pulled the latest
version from CVS to catch any patches that had been made.  It's been a little more
stable since then, but tonight it failed again.

  Any suggestions on how to narrow down the problem?  Can a debug log be turned on
to get a better idea where it's failing, or can I force a core file somehow when
it's sitting in that half defunct state?
