ClamAV constantly failing

Well, not, but the current PID is saved in /var/run/MailScanner:

[root at mail ~]# ps -ef | grep -w MailScanner | grep -v grep
postfix   4393     1  0 Apr03 ?        00:00:00 MailScanner: starting child
postfix   5766  4393  0 15:54 ?        00:00:01 MailScanner: waiting
for messages
postfix  25310  4393  0 15:29 ?        00:00:01 MailScanner: waiting
for messages
[root at mail ~]# cat /var/run/MailScanner.pid
4393

What's does MailScanner logs look like when it's unable to find/write
the current PID? Maybe I can look for it to verify if it's really
failing by this reason.
