I don't see what libvirt could do here. From the report it seems

* lxc is lacking error reporting
* doesn't wait for libvirt to come up - it's debatable wether this would
  be a good thing

I would totally agree that libvirt has a bug if the lxc container would
be libvirt managed (via lxc://) but this isn't the case.
