UPDATE: Big fun, it was an ClamAV issue - checked gettext versions up to
0.17 with McAfree and MSA - no viruses found, however with ClamAV:

[root@wolfdale ~]# /usr/local/bin/clamscan -r /jails/
samba.sgate.org/storage/csharpexec-test\ \(2\).exe --infected
/jails/samba.sgate.org/storage/csharpexec-test (2).exe: Trojan.Gendal-7
FOUND

----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
Known viruses: 878215
Engine version: 0.96.5
Scanned directories: 0
Scanned files: 1
Infected files: 1
Data scanned: 0.00 MB
Data read: 0.00 MB (ratio 0.00:1)
Time: 2.642 sec (0 m 2 s)

This is the file downloaded from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/ Same for
the older versions.

Then I did

[root@wolfdale ~]# freshclam
