-Set 'sysroot' as the system root directory. fontconfig prepend 'sysroot'
-to the cache directories in order to allow people to generate caches at
-the build time. Note that this causes changing current config. i.e.
-this function calls FcConfigSetCurrent() internally.
+Set 'sysroot' as the system root directory. All file paths used or created with
+this 'config' (including file properties in patterns) will be considered or
+made relative to this 'sysroot'. This allows a host to generate caches for
+targets at build time. This also allows a cache to be re-targeted to a
+different base directory if 'FcConfigGetSysRoot' is used to resolve file paths.
+When setting this on the current config this causes changing current config
+(calls FcConfigSetCurrent()).
