That's not true. At least, not in newer versions of lxc (e.g. from
ppa:ubuntu-lxc/stable, which is at 1.0)

the default ubuntu template now uses this on container config

# Common configuration
lxc.include = /usr/share/lxc/config/ubuntu.common.conf

... and that file contains

# Default mount entries
lxc.mount.entry = proc proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
lxc.mount.entry = sysfs sys sysfs defaults 0 0
lxc.mount.entry = /sys/fs/fuse/connections sys/fs/fuse/connections
none bind,optional 0 0
lxc.mount.entry = /sys/kernel/debug sys/kernel/debug none bind,optional 0 0
lxc.mount.entry = /sys/kernel/security sys/kernel/security none
bind,optional 0 0
lxc.mount.entry = /sys/fs/pstore sys/fs/pstore none bind,optional 0 0


so relative mount points on the container side should work fine.
