No, that was the wrong thing to do.  You've compiled a binary that will
attempt to call functions it is not linked against.

Two further suggestions...
1) You don't need to use the clamavmodule, you can just use the plain
clamav commandline program (by setting Virus Scanners = clamav), the
performance isn't vastly worse (not like the Sophos / SAVI difference)
and you get the benefit of being able to use external unpackers which I
don't think the module does (although I could be wrong on that last
point)
2) You should be able to compile okay if you actually install the -devel
rpm.  The {libname} rpm only contains the dynamic libs neded by programs
at runtime, the {libname}-devel rpm contains the header files needed to
compile/link programs and static libraries in case you need to compile a
statically linked binary.  You must have the {libname}-devel package
installed for any library you need to link against.
