This can happen if the syntax used in the .conf files is not compatible
between the fontconfig version in FreeBSD and in the linuxulator ports.

That's by design. The linux program looks for /a/b/c, the linuxulator
first looks in /compat/linux/a/b/c, and if it doesn't find it there, it
looks in /a/b/c. If it wouldn't work like that, you wouldn't be able to
access your home directory without manual work to also make it
available in the /compat/linux subtree. And the
linux_base-infrastructure makes heavy use of this so that you only have
to configure the corresponding FreeBSD part and the linux-counterpart
works without further work. Fontconfig is just one of the things which
make use of this.
Bye,
Alexander.
