Does somebody have time to report this to the developers of fontconfig please?

Please check whether fontconfig @2.12.1_1 (r152719) has fixed this problem.

That fixes it for me: fc-list using 2.12.1_1 takes a similar time, near instantaneous, to 2.12.0_0 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52088#comment:17> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for macOS
