But, most Windows applications have their own fontconfig cache directories

In this case, there is no conflict with other applications

   Actually, that's a problem -- I wouldn't rely on that behavior
staying that way.  It can take several minutes to generate a large
font cache -- and doing that for each program would make things
even worse.


fontconfig 2.11.1 does not lock the cache while updating it.
It works fine on Windows.

   Yeah... just because it works right in isolation doesn't mean
it will work right when multiple apps are trying to update it.
