Okay.

Ah, good, the core was dumped.

Can you get a backtrace from the coredump?

$ gdb $(which xftcache) core
[...]
(gdb) bt full

In the event that just produces a lot of output with ???s, try
reproducing the problem with debugging libraries installed and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH set:

# apt-get install xlibs-dbg libc6-dbg
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/debug:/usr/lib/debug

A new core dump will have to be generated with that variable in the
environment.
