[Lxc-users] lxc-start leaks environment variables

Hi all,

I'm running lxc 0.9.0~alpha3-1 on a Debian sid box and I created a
container using lxc-debconf which doesn't set any default locale.  When
starting the container using lxc-start, I expected it to have no LANG
variable defined, but I noticed that it had inherited that from my root
session in the host.  Of course this causes several warnings in
different programs, but I'm more concerned about the leaking of
environment variables itself.  Is this a known or expected behaviour, or
rather a bug?  Maybe other variables are leaking too.

Thanks,
