I do not think that your glibc update went really well, because the locales
have not been generated (and this should have happened when glibc was updated).
Since you are nonetheless out of the /lib-symlinks hell, I think that reinstalling glibc
should be safe for you and perhaps solve your issue:

#pacman -S glibc
