I still have this problem.

After upgrading fontconfig, I need to do
# touch /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/fonts.cache-1

The problem happens when you have a directory with no fonts in it (I think),
and a fonts.cache-1 file, with subdirectories with fonts in them.
E.g., /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ has a fonts-cache1 with 0 fonts.

You need to touch the fonts.cache-1 file in any one of the subdirectories,
then run gedit, and all is well.

I'm contemplating a wrapper for the rpm command that does this each
time rpm is run :-)
