It's not that dazuko is written badly, it's just that some kernel developers think that on-access scanning isn't needed for Linux with the only exception being windows partitions/shares and there you can combine samba with a virus scanner.
Offhand, it seems like a fairly defensible position. On-access scanning is a horrible performance drain, especially for the class of applications that frequently access many different files in their normal operation. Two examples of such applications near and dear to my heart are servers (Web, file, etc.) and IDEs.
