Ok, let's try building just the raw upstream package; trust me, there
aren't any significant debian changes outside of the configuration
stuff, and besides, we aren't going to install any of this, just test
from the build directory.

$ apt-get source fontconfig
$ tar xzf fontconfig_2.4.2.orig.tar.gz
$ cd fontconfig-2.4.2/
$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man 
--localstatedir=/var CFLAGS=-g
$ make
$ cd fc-cache
$ su
#  ../libtool --mode=execute gdb fc-cache
(gdb) run -f

I haven't a clue what that could mean, I'm afraid. The procedure above
shouldn't hit this issue though.

Thanks much for your perseverance; a crash in fontconfig on any system
is cause for concern.
