For some reason clamav blocks the curl user agent for .sig files ...
This could be worked around by using a custom user agent for curl like

    curl -A makepkg -L 
"https://www.clamav.net/downloads/production/clamav-0.103.4.tar.gz.sig";

The curl commands in makepkg.conf are not doing that, maybe that should be 
changed.

Something like this works at least in this case:

    curl -so /dev/null --max-filesize 1 -H "Range: bytes=0-0" -A makepkg -L 
"https://www.clamav.net/downloads/production/clamav-0.103.2.tar.gz.sig"; -w 
%{url_effective}
