IIRC quite some of them handle it already. That could also avoid > running fc-cache with default settings thus avoiding fonts.cache-1 files > under encodings. This is doable. I could remove the cache generation and cleaning code from fontconfig once all font ports have been updated to run fc-cache themselves. This would require all font ports to depend on fontconfig, though.
