Great ! I don't have enough knowledge of the fontconfig internals, but
it looks simple enough to work. Although, I'd have the same remark as
Keith about the hash: using a MD5 hash would be much better, as the code
isn't collision-safe.

I think you should use ${localstatedir}/cache/fontconfig instead.
Furthermore, the makefiles should create this directory in DESTDIR in
the install target. Packagers will either use this directory or create
it themselves, this isn't a problem.
