Just apply this patch from the DConf git repo, which removes
posix_fallocate() and uses ftruncate() instead:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/dconf/commit/?id=e3dd1d8ac6839851cb3015e89cdf39ecb2e2b081

You can add this patch in package/dconf/, and mention in the patch
comment that it is already upstreamed and therefore should be removed
when DConf version is bumped.

Regards,

Thomas
