  I don't know about policy, but my experience with clamav from
lenny-volatile was that the engine itself actually did update,
typically within a few weeks after it started squawking.  

  My understanding for squeeze-updates was that it was intended
to serve the same role for squeeze, i.e. that time-critical new 
versions which were not necessarily security-related would come
through this pipe.  

  ClamAV is the archetypical example for this, but given the recent
announcements, I wonder if iceweasel might find itself in this
channel also....
