Yes.
With this extra preamble coding:
\newbox\leaderbox
\setbox\leaderbox=\hbox{.}
\def\LRleaders{\leaders\copy\leaderbox\hfill}
\def\RLleaders{\LR{\LRleaders}}
and using
\marginpar{\RLleaders p.6}
the image shows the result.

So the directionality is wrong within the margin-pars,
(as well as the width being too large) when specified
within RL-environments.
I'd recommend implementing 2 types of marginpar:
\LRmarginpar and \RLmarginpar which guarantee
the correct directionality for their contents.
These could be use directly within the LaTeX source,
or there can be a switching mechanism which implements
\let\marginpar\..marginpar
where ..='LR' or 'RL',
according to the default requirements of an environment.
Then an optional argument would allow the default to be
overridden, giving the opposite behaviour.
Hope this helps,
Ross
