I a;so see this in Windows 7 with SeaMonkey 2.40.  The problem is that
several specialized caches are not in the directory where the user has
requested caches to be stored.  I see no good reason why there are
specialized caches.

See the bug reports at
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=804731>
 and
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=864047>.
Also see the bug report that is supposed to be tracking bug reports
about caches at
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=559729>.
