Once the cache file is properly initialized on all platforms, then it
sure looks like a platform-independent file to me.  For cache
generation, it's just a matter of running fc-cache a number of times,
rather than just once.

It's also not like fontconfig will die if a cache file is not properly
initialized for a particular architecture; it will then just cache the
fonts in the local cache file.
