I didn't see any problems on CentOS 7 or CentOS 6 on my systems using clamav with the 23161 daily update. Are you saying you had a problem with them? The only problem was with CentOS 5 on my systems. The workaround would apply to any distribution though that was affected by the regexp not working on pcre libraries older than 7.0. If the whitelist.ign2 file is put in the database directory where daily.cvd was updated, it would work around the problem for those 2 signatures.
The point of my post is that this can be a quick workaround to get clamd working again if a regexp problem like this pops up. I was going in all different directions myself trying to get clamd working (recompiling, daily.cvd manipulations, etc) until I stumbled onto the much simpler whitelist.ign2 feature which I was not aware of until a few days ago. I really wanted to stick with pre-built rpm packages on the installs. I am just trying to spread the info in case others were not aware of the whitelist feature in clamav/clamd.
