It's not a bug for upstart, systemd, sysvinit, cron, etc to use LANG=C.  The POSIX locale is the only locale guaranteed to exist on a system.  Therefore these low level services should be using LANG=C.  Embedded systems, thin clients, and other low memory or low disk devices may benefit from shipping without any locales.
