Hmph; I mentioned this weeks ago (26 Nov 2010, according to git):

    # cat /etc/init/lxc.conf
    description "LXC vs. Upstart workarounds"
    start on startup
    task
    console output
    script
     # As lxc 0.7's halt/reboot detection hack needs /var/run to NOT be a
     # tmpfs, we need to manually clean it -- esp. the ifstate file that
     # tells falsely tells ifupdown "lo is up".
     #
     # To debug, add -printf "Deleting stale file %p\n" before -delete.
     find /var/run/ -xdev -not -path /var/run/ -delete
     initctl emit -n stopped JOB=udevtrigger
     initctl emit -n started JOB=udev
     # This one is needed for broken ifupdown NMU 0.6.8ubuntu29.1
     initctl emit -n net-device-up IFACE=lo LOGICAL=lo ADDRFAM=inet METHOD=loopback
    end script
