Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix this or what would be causing it; I 
wasn't able to reproduce this either under 4.10 or 5-current. But since you 
asked for a workaround - you could comment out the following line in 
x11-fonts/fontconfig/Makefile:
	@${SH} ${PKGINSTALL} ${PKGNAME} POST-INSTALL
That would avoid building fontcache so the installation of other ports should 
proceed.
Perhaps the maintainers (gnome at freebsd.org) would know how to actually fix 
this.
