Sorry that was a cockup on my part -- some experimental code for getting
emergency dat files between a virus outbreak and a full dat file update
escaped. My current version of the script is below.

# $PREFIX is the directory where the uvscan binary is (NOT a symlink to
# the binary), which is where it looks for its dat files. You may run
# uvscan via a symlink to this place (e.g. from /usr/local/bin/uvscan)
# and it will still look for the dat files here. If uvscan's library
# dependencies can be found in a standard place (e.g. /usr/local/lib)
# then you don't need a wrapper script to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH before
# running it.
#
# The dat files are installed in a subdirectory of $DATDIR named
# according to their version number, with symlinks from $PREFIX into
# the subdirectory via a current link. The current link is updated
# without locking on the assumption that this is sufficiently unlikely
# to cause a problem.
