Indeed, the --with-system-tommath was removed from configure, because 
clamav uses now 'tomsfastmath instead of tommath' [1].

As libtommath seems to be dead upstream (last release in 2011, homepage 
vanished), I'm not sure reverting this makes much sense.

We probably should just remove '--with-system-tommath' (and 
'--without-included-ltdl', which is the default) from debian/rules.

Best regards,
Andreas
