Description of problem:

A few days ago, something in Koji changed which started breaking
certain builds.  After investigating this, we have found that
if 'fontconfig' is used as a build dependency, $HOME/.config
is created and owned by root.root, which means that no user program
can create any directory under $HOME/.config:

+ ls -al /builddir
total 36
drwx------.  5 mockbuild mockbuild 4096 Sep  1 22:35 .
dr-xr-xr-x. 18 root      root      4096 Sep  1 22:23 ..
-rwxr-xr-x.  1 mockbuild mockbuild   18 Aug  9 12:08 .bash_logout
-rwxr-xr-x.  1 mockbuild mockbuild  193 Aug  9 12:08 .bash_profile
-rwxr-xr-x.  1 mockbuild mockbuild  231 Aug  9 12:08 .bashrc
drwxr-xr-x.  3 mockbuild mockbuild 4096 Sep  1 22:35 .cache
drwxr-xr-x.  3 root      root      4096 Sep  1 22:24 .config
-rw-rw-r--.  1 mockbuild mockbuild  211 Sep  1 22:23 .rpmmacros
drwxr-xr-x.  9 mockbuild mockbuild 4096 Sep  1 22:23 build

+ ls -al /builddir/.config
total 12
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root      root      4096 Sep  1 22:24 .
drwx------. 5 mockbuild mockbuild 4096 Sep  1 22:35 ..
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root      root      4096 Sep  1 22:24 fontconfig

This seems to be related to this build change:

commit 48deb947abd85d2f00c04d0f22c42fbe43d87cee
Author: Akira TAGOH <tagoh at redhat.com>

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See the steps in bug 1003088.

Actual results:

Programs fail to run %check sections, if they rely on anything
that creates files in $HOME/.config
