don't do this! these are leftovers from mkpatch

I see. Thanks!
patching file clamav-0.80/CYGWIN-PATCHES/README
patching file clamav-0.80/CYGWIN-PATCHES/postinstall.sh
patching file clamav-0.80/CYGWIN-PATCHES/preremove.sh
patching file clamav-0.80/INSTALL
patching file clamav-0.80/Makefile.in
patching file clamav-0.80/acinclude.m4
patching file clamav-0.80/aclocal.m4
The next patch would delete the file clamav-0.80/clamav-0.80/AUTHORS,
which does not exist!  Assume -R? [n]
...

These are wrong leftovers from the mkpatch step.
Please replace in prep
     patch -b -Z -p0 < ${src_patch} ;\
with
     patch -N -Z -p0 < ${src_patch} ;\

This will safely ignore those wrong patches.

That's why it was so huge!
Sorry. I will come up with an update soon. I've found some problem by 
myself also and was already working on -2.
