Thanks for the bugreport!
Indeed there is a special-case missing here and now that we have a bug
report for it i might be able to not forget it again. ;)
Until its fixed just remove the /var/lib/apt/lists/*_i18n_Translation-* file(s)
and it should work™ as advertised.
(APT picks up languages from these files as otherwise scripts running apt
under LANG=C will cause problems like an incomplete binary cache --
pretty much the same problem for any multi-language system, …)
