Odd. There were such files (most of them empty) in various installation

there seems to be no font cache file created :-(
Performance is not significantly different from what I'm used to, but
typically, it does *not* spend 30' doing nothing before starting to parse.
Isn't this odd ?
I was just wiping a Windows installation (for a computer to be sold),
and it had a C:\Documents and settings\hanwen\.fonts.cache-1 file, which
I got after installing and running LilyPond.
Browsing the fontconfig sources, it seems the following happens:
- the cache file is put in the $HOME directory. If not defined
$USERPROFILE is used on windows32.
- if that fails, it is put the directory indicated by GetTempDir()
windows32 API call. GetTempDir can return any directory, including
non-existent ones (It looks at $TMP and $TEMP among others). See

Can you people check what happens if you define the USERPROFILE variable?
In Cygwin, this means
export USERPROFILE='/cygdrive/c/windows'
lilypond ....
this should leave a .fonts.cache-1 in your windows directory. I'm not
sure how you set environment variables in the normal windows shell.
Jan, do you know where the USERPROFILE variable should come from?
