Indeed. I've tested it like you suggested, with your bytecode.cvd, and I 
did get the long startup times on both Maverick and Lucid, two separate 
machines:

gi...@ximi:~/Desktop$ time clamscan --quiet -dbytecode.cvd /tmp
LibClamAV Warning:

real    3m20.331s
user    3m20.080s
sys     0m0.190s

After upgrading to -proposed, the problem got resolved:

gi...@ximi:~/Desktop$ time clamscan --quiet -dbytecode.cvd /tmp

real    0m0.578s
user    0m0.550s
sys     0m0.020s

gi...@ximi:~/Desktop$ apt-cache policy clamav
clamav:

And on Lucid:

Confirmed that -proposed packages fix the bug.
