Actually, Dumbledore states (sorry, don't have the book with me here) in HBP that Voldemort was "very angry" when he found out about the diary being destroyed.  That, combined with the ministry fiasco, is the reason, as DD states, that LV is so angry with Lucius.

Personally, I think Voldemort has made his Horcruxes, and created his 7 part soul.  He says, in the pensieve flashback with Sluggy, that 7 is the most magically powerful number.  If he's created this, I think he has enough faith in magic and it's principles (indeed, that's his whole life) to think that the 7 part soul he created will stand and be enough, and that creating any more would only weaken him.  Actually, he may also be a bit wary of splitting his soul any more, as well.  

Hard to say, but I'm willing to bet that Tom Riddle has decided 7 is 
enough.
