It doesn't really seem like LV can make more horcruxes now, does it?
DD tells Harry that he only has to worry about finding & destroying
the seven horcruxes LV had already made before his first defeat. LV is
still killing people, he still wants to be immortal - so why wouldn't
DD warn Harry that he may create more horcruxes? It seems like DD is
pretty certain that no more horcruxes can be made. And it's a good
thing. If LV could, he'd just keep making more faster than Harry could
ever destroy them, and truly become immortal. 

IMO, if DD knows that LV can't make any more horcruxes, this would
also explain why he'd choose to share the horcrux knowledge w/Harry -
who can't do Occlumency & does have a direct mental connection to LV.
It seems like that information would be too dangerous to share
otherwise. Also, this explains why LV would be so angry w/Malfoy for
giving away the diary.
