Unless it interferes with the normal operation of the code, no.

That's the expected behavior. It's searching the normal paths for
translation files. NOTABUG.
If you can actually get some profiling data to show that it's slowing
down system performance in a *significant*, *measurable* way then I'm
sure the glibc folks would be interested in hearing your suggestions on
how to speed things up.
Otherwise.. there's plenty of code that's *actually* broken that could
use some attention instead.
