Status update with refreshed CVS snapshot (15min ago) :

~/.fonts.cache-2 created each time an application is started when
~/.fonts exist => FIXED
fc-cat ~/.fonts.cache-2 returns empty informations => FIXED

And I haven't see any regression about the other bug I mentioned in my
previous post.

As Matthias noted, "make check" now fails.
