It is printing an error message, but it should continue
processing. This was fixed in response to bug #488115.

It just happens to be the final error message it prints, because the
last thing approx-gc does is a depth-first traversal of the cache to
remove empty directories. So /lost+found will be one of the last
ones visited.

It would be fairly ugly to add a special case just for "lost+found".
Would it be sufficient to filter out the error so you don't get email
from the cron job?  Something like this should work
(in /etc/cron.weekly/approx):

    /usr/sbin/approx-gc --quiet 2>&1 | fgrep -v lost+found
