Aw, what's the worst that could happen?
Of more immediate concern, you have a lot of headroom in that carboy in the top photo. You might want to top it off or rack to a smaller vessel.
Just grasp the carboy firmly on each side and give it a quick twist, I am guessing the sediment ring will fall and it wont appear as a crack.
Unfortunatly the racking made the wine cloudy again because of the yeast falling of the sides of the carboy.
Still some headspace though, should I fill it further?

lol. I'm thinking you are worrying too much. Is it smooth when you run your hand over it? And if you are that concerned about why don't you fill it with water and then put it under pressure?
