Hi,

I was looking for ways to speed up fc-cache and created the attached
trivial patch. It changes the fc-cache invocation during package install
to add the -s flag, so that it searches for system fonts only, which
seems appropriate for pkg install time. This may provide a very minor
speed up of package installation.

My main goal is to speed up my ports tinderbox which at times seems to
spend a good bit of time updating font caches during package installation.

Thanks,
Steve
