This is correct except a minor point which is bond0 has enslaved the
host's two NICs, eth0 and eth1

Oh man, I'm holding my head low in shame!!  When I was using the host as
the forwarder it's IP on the private lxcbr0 interface was the gateway
for the containers.  When I set up ct1, the dual-interface forwarder, I
forgot to change the gateway on ct2 to the private ip of ct1.  What a
trivial mistake but nevertheless, thanks so much for helping me track it
down.
