I recommend uploading those files to virustotal.com. It scans with plethora of antivirus engines and it can give you quite good idea whether it is really a false positive or not.
AFAIK there is also good data exchange between virustotal.com and many AV vendors so this is often an indirect way how to make the AV vendor notice an issue :-) Of course, try also talking with people from sf.net what AV they are using and propagating the files to the AV vendor directly for further analysis. Usually AV vendors are quite responsive to such kind of reports. It is in any AV vendor's interest to fix false positives asap, especially of such popular SW. Often, the false positives are caused by too weakly defined pattern sample in their virus database which then can often be responsible for more false positives.
