Hello Graham,
I'm not going to be any help to you but, I have the
same identical problem having tried to update Clamav
several times, via the Clamav auto-compile update
feature(it sucks). I have basically the same
configuration as you, same gcc, etc., and do have
build-essentials installed but no success using Clamav
auto-compile wizard after several tries. I have only
compiled once with hand-holding help so don't know
what to do.  Perhaps someone will come to our aid with
the fix and help both of us.  Will be watching this
thread closely,
