This doesn't quite work properly: if the config blacklists
Hershey-Gothic-English, then Hershey-Gothic-English won't show up in
fonts.cache-2 and so it won't be loaded on subsequent runs.  Even if
it's not blacklisted in the future.  On the other hand, if
Hershey-Gothic-English is in the cache and blacklisted, then it doesn't
show up in fc-list.

I guess caches should be invalid if the configuration is newer than the
cache.  Looks like I'll have to cook up a patch to do that, or to put
all fonts in the cache and filter later.  fc-cache puts all fonts in the
cache, but this is not true of the global cache.  Suggestions?
