So I made sure I had it

[root@coyote ~]# which fc-cache
/usr/bin/fc-cache

and reran it with exactly the same, really enlightening results:

So where IS this cache file?
straceing it, right at the startup gives a clue though:
-------------------------------------
[root@coyote ~]# strace /usr/bin/fc-cache /usr/share/fonts
execve("/usr/bin/fc-cache", ["/usr/bin/fc-cache", "/usr/share/fonts"], [/*
31 vars */]) = 0
brk(0) = 0x804c000
access("/etc/ld.so.preload", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/fglrx/tls/i686/libfreetype.so.6", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat64("/usr/lib/fglrx/tls/i686", 0xbfbf0c38) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/fglrx/tls/libfreetype.so.6", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
stat64("/usr/lib/fglrx/tls", 0xbfbf0c38) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/fglrx/i686/libfreetype.so.6", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat64("/usr/lib/fglrx/i686", 0xbfbf0c38) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/fglrx/libfreetype.so.6", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
----------------------
/etc/ld.so.preload doesn't exist, and supposedly the fglrx stuff can be
nuked as I got rid of the ATI card about a month ago.
Any more hints? In the meantime I'll go see what I can learn about
ld.so.preload.
