Ask for vendors for those applications to build fontconfig with
--with-cache-dir=~/Liberary/Caches/path/to/cache then. again, this option is to
change the cache dir location. I don't see any reasons to support the default
location for each platforms at all.

Another way to specify the user-based cache directory, setting up
XDG_CACHE_HOME=~/Library/Caches is an option.
