Hi,
you said that starting an lxc container manipulates your host systems clock.
While I cannot reproduce that with any version of lxc in any kernel and
distribution combination (ranging from 2.6.29 till 2.6.39, lenny to
squeeze, and lxc 0.7.0 to 0.7.4), I also strongly think that this is not
possible and that you must have some other strange bug on your system,
not in the area of lxc.
Also, I've tested that with various timezone configurations to make
sure, that having different timezones in the container than on the host
system does not make this bug appear.
Regards,
Daniel
