[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] fontcache: fix fonts postinst failed

[Burton, Ross]

Ah, that would be why I have this in a local branch:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=ross/allarch

I rediscovered this on Friday...  personally I think my solution is better
as it's global instead of needing to be worked around in each place where
this can happen, but am open to debate on this.
