In fact I don't think we should do it that way. We should still call the macro
5 times, and we would have to remember what pkg-config issued the first time,
in order to then run the regex-replace commands again....

Executing command /usr/bin/pkg-config fontconfig --exists
Executing command /usr/bin/pkg-config fontconfig --variable=includedir
Executing command /usr/bin/pkg-config fontconfig --variable=libdir
Executing command /usr/bin/pkg-config fontconfig --libs
Executing command /usr/bin/pkg-config fontconfig --cflags
-- Found FONTCONFIG: /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so

Better use the cache on the final results rather than the stuff pkg-config
issued to us, IMHO.
