So it seems to be an intentional behavior, although I can't recall running across this with other packages. I'm curious why there are changes needed to the po files; the delta we carry does not affect strings at all, so this seems due just to some O/S skew between us and Debian.
If this were an SRU I'd be a bit more concerned about including such changes, but since this is a merge it seems just part of the process I guess. I don't see a documented way to skip it other than commenting out the debconf-updatepo line above.
Anyway, other than the surprise in my git branch, this behavior seems benign so I'm leaving it as is.

Yes, that was from my upload. It's not in my git branch though, thus my surprise. I did a bit more digging to understand it.
It looks like clamav is set up to do this automatically during `debuild -S`:
# d/rules dh_auto_ clean:
dh_auto_ clean
override_
# Update .po files for debconf.
debconf-updatepo
