Another possibility is to build milter-greylist using pth rather than
native threads. I had a lot of crashes with my 3.1 system when using clamav
with native threads, but since switching to pth it's been rock solid, even
with fairly high paging. May require some edits to system headers (the
PREFER_NATIVE_PTHREADS=NO and PTHREAD_TYPE=pth pkgsrc build options are not
perfect), but it's more than likely possible.
