Jinkeys, no idea.  Is the container still running after your
shell dies?

I'd try getting debug output from upstart itself.  Depending on which
lxc you're running, you may need to use lxc from the daily ppa to get
the patch "support arguments in lxc.init_cmd".  Add the following to
your container config:

  raw.lxc: |-
    lxc.console.logfile = /tmp/out
    lxc.init_cmd = /sbin/init --debug --verbose
