Unless it interferes with the normal operation of the code, no.
Basically goes to quality of code, reduces hw resources ( cpu calls ),
and so on..

For example...
open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo",
O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo",

open("/usr/share/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo", O_RDONLY)
=
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/locale/en.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo",
O_RDONLY)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/locale/en.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo", O_RDONLY)
=
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/initscripts.mo", O_RDONLY) =

ENOENT (No such file or directory)
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.

Was just an overall and curios question.
since I come across these things on numerous times
when strace-ing things,..
Will mark this as not to look for
( NOTABUG ) from now on..
Best regards.
