That's all well thought out. We recently picked option 4:

Test all the Dapper packages that depend on clamav with the current clamav and backport all the ones that break with the new clamav with or before a clamav backport.

This will take some doing. I've established a team to work on this. You can join at:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-clamav

The status of testing and locations of update clamav package for testing are at:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Clamav

If you can test something, let us know what you are working on on the wiki.

Since all of this will take a while, I am also preparing a source backport of clamav 0.88.7 (the last easily backportable version that was in an Ubuntu repository). I expect that within a week or so.
