No, not that.  Looking at the lxcapi_clone() function, it calls
update_name_and_paths() before we ever create c2, and that function
updates the lxc.rootfs in the configuration file.  So when I run
lxc-clone -o p1 -n p2, it actually looks for /dev/vg0/p2 to destroy.

Exactly what code (git commit id or distro+pkg) are you using?
